Remember

What would you like to be remembered for? Who you dated? What type of clothes you wore? What kind of car you drove? Be honest with yourself. Out of everything in your life, what would you like people to remember about you? You know, God wants you to be happy. He wants everyone to be happy and we take advantage of that. We take advantage of everything that God gives us but, do we thank Him for it? No. We go on with our lives because we expect Him to give us those things. God gave you all of those things that you want people to remember about you. Regardless of what it is. So don't you think we should repay Him for those things? Maybe get over ourselves and start living for Christ? All of my blogs seem to have a running theme recently and I know people out there, including myself, have trouble with this topic. We go to church, go to YoungLife, wear Jesus shirts, and maybe pray sometimes but, then we don't live out our faith around friends when it REALLY matters. Our world is hurting, guys. Christians are hurting. Your friends are hurting. Love them and have people remember that you had Christ shining in your life. Matthew 5:15 says "Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Be a light to this world. Be a light to your friends. Let God be remembered.
