regardless of how people judge me, i am a lover of God and i stand by my faith. i should never forget that. some people don’t believe in my God while others have the audacity to tell me that i don’t love mine, and some even the arrogance to hint to me i don’t love him as much as they do. it used to hurt me that people i cared for didn’t “get me” but not anymore. what i am challenged by instead, thanks to yesterday’s message, is how Jesus loved his people to the very end, no matter how many times they disappointed, or plain failed him. i don’t usually fast things other than food but this week, i am going to participate in a “media fast” with my church. goodbye facebook, email, movies, internet, and tv shows. my hope is that the time i save will help me medidate on this love, so that i can love others like this.
