The pretending mankind

Today, I just feel like sharing my view on several different issues if you feel like sharing your view as well feel free to drop a comment. Am I the only one who notices just how selfish mankind has become? Today, I started to think about how obsessed people have become with material things so much so that they will kill and destroy anyone or anything that stands in their way. I was watching a documentary this morning on how people in Africa are suffering and how thankful they are for some of the simpliest of things. How many times do you complain about not having the simpliest of things? We have come to be a very selfish and ungrateful set of people. When a woman can pretend to love a man just to get tho his pocket shows the lack of respect and she had for herself and the lack of care she has for another soul. When a man can pretend to love a woman just so that he can get to the cookie jar shows the lack of respect and value that he places on women and himself.

 Let me tell your the truth, sometimes I just feel like going in a box and staying in there. At times I am afraid of what mankind will do next. Walking on the street I wonder when will somebody snap and I will be the next victim. When will somebody feel offended by something I have said or none and decided that they have enough of me. The word love is thrown around so much and has become so intertwined with the word hate. It is good to forgive people but we have to think of our safety these days as murder suicides continue to increase around us I wonder at times what could possibly happen in a relationship for a person to kill their lover and themself. What I believe is that some evil force is out there that is taking over the mind of some of the people on our society. People do not respect themselves and when they are confronted will attack you in defense of their carefree attitude and lifestyle.

The future of our world will be filled with bitter and exploited people. People are so angry these days yet they claim to not be concerned about their haters or aren't affected by friendships going sour or fake people. What then is making everybody so angry? Mankind has become so comfortable with pretending. People pretend to love you to get what they want and people pretend to what the best for you Iifr but hate you when you get it. Pretending has sadly become a universal theme. We pretend to love our jobs, we pretend to be enjoying our lives, we pretend that we aren't affected by betrayal, we pretend to have everything in life figured out. We need to stop pretending and make changes to actually start living the life that we pretend to live.

Church ministry without God

Have you ever been to a church service and when the singers are singing you feel nothing? You can hear the words coming out of their mouths but they have no  conviction whatsoever? Music is one of the most important parts of church ministry and if God isn't in it, it shouldn't be called Gospel music to begin with. Some singers in church sing for self! They know they are blessed with beautiful voices so they use the church to showcase it but it isn't about ministry. It is simply to let people know what they have going on. They stand before you and they have blank expressions on their faces, while they sing such powerful lyrics. They aren't moved by it but they somehow expect that the congregation will be. The next issue is that of the modern day Gospel music. Call me old fashion but it isn't my flavour at all. Why should I have to be wondering whether I'm listening to Gospel or I'm at a dancehall event? Why does the church have to change itself to resemb...

Be more thankful

It's so easy for us to complain it's like we do it everyday. Are we more thankful for the blessings we have no matter how small they seem? It seems to me that more than ever people are more ungrateful than they are grateful. No matter how bad things are always remember that they could be much worse. Our house isn't big so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a house. Our pay cheque is small so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a job. Our skin isn't flawless so we complain instead of be thankful that we still have our skin to protect our bodies. Our body isn't sculpted perfectly so we complain instead of being thankful that all our body parts are still functioning. Our world is very ungrateful and we can never seem to be satisfied no matter how many blessings we have. This week I ask of you to be thankful for something everyday no matter how small it may seem.

This World

  A world where people don't love you if you can't supply them with all the material things they need. A world where people marry just to get citizenship in a country. A world where the most educated aren't the ones given the best of jobs. A world where the television and internet are left to teach our children values. A world where the leaders of the church spend more money on church buildings tha n feeding the poor. A world where children receive guns before they receive a book to read. A world where in one half of the world people fight for an apple to eat while in the other we pick,choose and refuse what to eat. A world where we cry when we have no new clothes or shoes but some have never felt the warmth of a shirt and pants on their cold flesh. A world where politicians get increases in pay while the citizens are placed on wage freeze for years. A world where everybody proclaims they can't trust anybody. A world where girls value are always occupied with their look...
