My Life:
Umm, today I went to class in the morning. In the afternoon I stayed home and finished a photography project even thought I was supposed to be in class (I miss-predicted the time the project would take). Now I’m eating leftovers for dinner.
(OK.. if that’s all blogs are… I have no idea how they got popular, that was really boring)
Now for the interesting stuff –>
My Thoughts:
My thoughts today turn towards American Christianity in contrast with the Christianity of the rest of the world. As I see it, those who call themselves believers in the
Today, 500 Pakistani Christians will live with the knowledge that at any moment militants could burst through the door with guns slaughter them and their families… and I consider myself a radical Christian because I carry my Bible around with me.

Can I even call myself a Christian when I can not even take 30 minutes a day to fellowship with Christ?
Now I know what you are thinking. All one must do to be a Christian is confess with your mouth and believe in your heart and you will be saved. Really? Those are the words of Romans 10:9 says, but what does scripture say in the bigger context?
Well… there is much more to be said on this subject, many pages worth. But my thoughts are not yet solidified and I haven’t yet done all the research so you’ll just have to wait.
Just to wet your appitite here are some of the verses I am pondering…
Ps 63:1, Isaiah 58:2-14,James 2:14-26, 1 John 3:17-18, Matt 18:23-35…

One, blogs are popular because, no matter how "boring" they may, they give those of us who have nothing better to do than read them the satisfaction of knowing that we aren't the only ones that have nothing to do.
With that said, I agree. That's about all I'm going to say because one, I do agree, and two, I don't remember exactly all of what was said since I have a new window now : ).
