Why I Want To Get In Shape
Because I want to live to see my grandkids, and serve the Lord. I'm a Pentacostal and proud of it. But I know that lots of folks don't like 'my kind'. So I offer a poem, and an olive branch...
BOX (Written by:
Strawburry17 - http://www.strawburry17.blogspot.com/)
At times I get discouraged with the "place" the world puts me. I don't claim to be anything more than human. I just strive to be more Christ like in all I do.
This doesn’t mean I’m perfect, that I’ve never doubted, or never sinned. It doesn’t mean I’ve lived a sheltered life of forced religion taught by my parents.
It doesn’t mean I’ll judge others who have chosen to live a different life style or are a different religion then me.
It means, to me, that I’ve made a choice.
To focus on what God wants for me.
To live a life full of purpose according to his will.
To love people, instead of worrying about where they're at in life.
To be honest and sincere in my actions.
To live a life above reproach and questioning.
To set aside my wants and desires for his glory.
To do what is right, not because I feel I have to but because I have an understanding that I’m worth more than the pressures and standards of mans opinion of me.
To be a living sacrifice.
The "box" and its four small walls, built out of pre conceived thoughts, enclosed with the bondage of stereo typical allegations justified by previous acquaintances claiming to be the same but acted in a hypocritical manner.
This box.
Cannot contain me.
My Inspirations
- Jesus and my daughter Mollie
