Bowling with people

   When I thought about going bowling this morning, I thought that it was going to be superboring and that it was going to be really weird because of who we were bowling with. My attitude changed within the first two minutes of being there. I got the oppritunity to cheer four cool guys that i will never forget about ever in my life. One of them in perticular, JayJay, was the funniest of them all. He told me stories aobut him and his brothers messing with their dad, playing in the creek, and going to school. He told me that when his dad died he got really sad, and that thats why he is the way he is. I told him that he shouldnt be sad, but be happy that God made him the way he is. I know that i am going to make this short, but i dont think any length of writing could show my appreatiation for today.

Spirtual emphasis week

   Well now that its over with i guess you would like to know what i think about it huh? Well, i think that just about everyone has the same opinion about Andy. He was funny, he kept you awake, but most importantly, he made you think. He had me hooked from day one.
  The first thing he talked about was "Believe." I thought i believed in the Bible, i mean like die hard word for word this is truth belief, but i didnt. And it was because of him, and his questions that made do my research and finally come to the conclution that my Bible rocks. I know have more faith in my Bible because of him, and now i can finally answer all the questions that have to do with my faith.
   Second point, "Behave." This part was just about as mind blowing as the first part. I realized that just saying your a christian doesnt mean you are. You have to be a christian. The big thing though that changed my life is that for the longest time i was told that i can listen and watch whatever i want to only as long as i dont do the all the stuff that i know is wrong. Haha i cant believe how stupid that is. He was right about one thing, if you fill your mind with all the things that we know as christians is wrong, believe it or not we might become the very things we point and say "Well i would never do that, i have Jesus." So in this sudden realization i have gone through everything taken all the music off of my ipod that i know is wrong, and i have started turning off the tv when south park or family guy comes on.
   Third and final point, "Belong." This one is about being part of the christian community and really knowing what it means to be a real christian. I think that Andy was mailnly getting on the point that we all have sinned., and that we shouldnt "look down our long nose of judgement," just because no one knows our deepest darkest secrets. I admit i have done things that if anyone knew about i might die. But it shouldnt be that way, We are all part of Christ's family and family doensnt give up hope because of what you did yesterday.
   And that my friend is what Spirtual emphasis week did to my life. But to sum it up in four words. IT CHANGED MY LIFE.

MY friend

   Well i would love to have a friend that wouldnt make fun of all the things that i do, but i know that i also want a friend that calls me out on all the things that i do wrong. And i know that the friends i have are very good at that. Another quality that i would want is a good listener. I would love to have a friend that wouldnt interrupt me every time i talk, and i would try to not do the same to him or her. But to be completely honest the friends i have now are pretty cool and diverse enough so that i get a piece of everything.
