JESUS IS ENOUGH

Ok...So I'm going to get religous. I've been a born again christian most of my life. I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God and died for my sins on a cross. I know that a lot of people that I love and are very precious to me don't believe the same thing, so I try not to shove it down their throats. I also know that there was a time when I chose to be angy with God for things that were out of my control and I felt that God should've fixed them so I wouldn't have to hurt. I have also experienced times where even in the church I grew up in, people turned their back on me. Feeling like the "prodical son" sucks. And sure everyone is super (fake) happy to see you and "so glad you're feeling better", but still you know that somehow you just don't fit into the group anymore. Anyway, the point is...I know what its like to be both on the inside of the group and what it's like standing on the outside feeling like you are not worthy. Since when is Christ blood for those who are already christians or for those who live rightious lives. I now realize what it's like for those who didn't grow up in the church...who wants to feel like that. It's no wonder people who are lost and broken choose to go to "drugs, sex, and rock 'N' roll" instead of turning to the one thing that can really truly fill that whole that feels endlessly deep! This song sums it up perfectly



Does Anybody Hear Her

By: Casting Crowns



She is running

A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction

She is trying

But the canyon's ever widening

In the depths of her cold heart

So she sets ou on another misadventure just to find

She's another two years older

And she's three more steps behind



Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

Or does anybody even know she's going down today

Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonley people

Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?



She is yearning

For shelter and affection

That she never found at home

She is searching

For a hero to rinde

To ride in and save the day

And in walks her prince charming

And he knows just what to say

Momentary lapse of reason

And she gives herself away



Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

Or does anybody even know she's going down today

Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonely people

Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?



If judgement looms under every steeple

If lofty glances from lofty people

Can't see past her scarlet letter

And we've never even met her



If judgement looms under every steeple

If lofty glances from lofty people

Can't see past her scarlet letter

And we've never even met her

Never even met her



Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?

Or does anybody even know she's going down today

Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonely people

Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?



He is running a hundered miles an hour in the wrong direction.



So why is it as a church we turn our backs on those who need it most. Since when do we get to decide who Christ died for. WE DON'T! He died for all of us. I promise that I will be accepting and try not to pass judgement on those who are in need. I want and will be an example of Christ and show people the things that he has saved me from, and how he has changed me. That is my promise to you!! Whoever reads this. Jesus wouldn't turn his back on you just because of your "scarlet letter" so neither am I.
