WHY DO PEOPLE TALK LIKE THAT

I WAS LISTENING TO "BOTT" RADIO AND ON THIS PARTICULAR RADIO SHOW THE HOST WAS INTERVIEWING SOME AUTHOR OF OVER 70 BOOKS, WHICH IS TOTALLY IMPRESSIVE. BUT WHEN HE WAS GIVING HIS ANSWER IT WAS SO "SCHOLARLY". IT WASN'T FOR THE LAYMAN, YOU KNOW? I THINK THAT PEOPLE FORGET THAT THE PEOPLE WHO NEED GOD ARE NOT SCHOLARS OR SUPER SMART AND CAN UNDERSTAND ALL OF YOUR SUPER COOL WORDS. WE ARE JUST NORMAL PEOPLE IN DESIRE OF NORMAL WORDS TO TEACH US WHAT GOD MEANS. PERIOD! DONE! THAT'S IT! BUT THE PEOPLE IN THE LIME-LIGHT ARE SO GOBBLED UP BY THE NEED TO SOUND LIKE THEY KNOW "IT" THAT THEY FORGET WHAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT. WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THE LOVE OF GOD AND THE SAVING OF SOULS!!!!

AS I WAS LISTENING TO THIS RADIO SHOW I WAS IMAGINING IF I WAS NOT A CHRISTIAN AND DIDN'T GET GOD. WHAT I WOULD THINK? I THINK I WOULD REALLY THINK THAT THESE CHRISTIANS WERE SNOTS!!! I WOULD THINK THAT THEY WERE PRETENTIOUS AND "KNOW IT ALLS". HERE'S THE DEAL! SOCIETY NEEDS CHRISTIANS THAT GET GOD BUT ALSO GET PEOPLE, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?!?!? THAT IS IMPERATIVE!!! THE ONLY WAY TO REACH PEOPLE IS TO HUMBLE, TO BE OUR REAL SELVES AND PUT OURSELVES IN THEIR SHOES. YOU KNOW WALK A MILE IN THEIR SHOES, I BELIEVE IN THAT COMPLETELY.

I THINK PEOPLE NEED TO STOP TRYING TO BE SOMETHING THAT THEY ARE NOT, IT'S TIME TO GET REAL! THIS LAST SUNDAY AT CHURCH OUR PASTOR LET HIS 22 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER PREACH AND IT WAS AWESOME!! SHE TRULY HAS THAT GIFT, AND SHE SAID SOMETHING THAT SHOOK ME UP, WELL ONE OF MANY THINGS. BUT THIS ONE THING SHE SAID;

PEOPLE ARE SO BUSY TRYING TO IMPRESS OTHERS THAT IT IS CAUSING INTIMIDATION AND INSECURITY. ALL START WITH THE WORD "I"

I WOULD LIKE WHOM EVER IS READING THIS TO STOP AND THINK ABOUT THAT. LET US STOP THINKING ABOUT OURSELVES AND START THINKING ABOUT OTHERS. THANK YOU FOR READING THIS. NOW GO MAKE GOOD CHOICES. GOD BLESS
