Everyone knows that I am a follower of God, I'm a Christian. I grew up in church and i haven't departed (Thank God). At school, I'd tell my friends i was Christian, i believed in God, plain and simple. I've never been drunk and I've never smoked pot, marijuana etc... (and never plan to). Both my parents, my two older brothers are Christian and i love them all. God has blessed me with a good mood, with a passion of being joyful, hyper and friendly. I AM A CHRISTIAN! and everybody expects me to be a Christian...
I've build many relationships throughout my life. Friends that I trust, enjoy being around, and just having a good time. God blessed me with the gift of hospitality. I guess i use it to my best. And to just think of leaving my friends, letting them down, and dissapointing them... to me is unacceptable.
My point is that, since I've tried my utter best to maintain a relationship with my Lord... people will always expect me to stay a Christian. When I thought about leaving church, leaving the ways of God, I'd think of every single soul that has touched me and I to them. I couldn't do it. God placed a burden in me, for them. I have to maintain my ground, for myself, but above all else... for them. Brothers and sister leave... but Esteban is still there. Who do i know that still goes to that church? i know Esteban. Hey look... Esteban is STILL here. At least they'll have one thing similar since they've left.
It's hard to explain, and it seems a bit vague, but that's what God placed in my heart. To show love, hospitality, compassion, thats why I'm here. I'm no one to judge. I'm here to listen. When you feel that no one hears you, I'll hear you. I'll show love when no one else will. This is me... I don't know how else to explain it. I need to be friendly, I need to spread the Gosple. To show love the way God showed love towards me.To carry other people's burden with them. If you're in pain, I'm in pain. If you're suffering, I'm suffering. Maybe i won't clearly understand your situation, problems, issues, but I'll sure try to.
Don't get me wrong, I live for God. I look to the hills, from which cometh my help, and my help cometh from the Lord. I'll always be a Christian for God, and for everyone else. I will set a standard, when the enemy comes in like a flood... I WILL! stand my ground. This is my burden.
