I haven't made a post in a while.

So, I'm going to make it a meaningful one to me. It's a very big deal, and if you don't agree, don't act in an angry manner, I apologize for your views being different than mine, but we're all individuals.

After searching through my room for my bible, I thought about how this symbolizes our culture in the world we live in.
There is so much of a mess around us we forget to prioritize what is good, and what we desire. Most people choose desire over what is good, because the temporary feeling of happiness or fulfillment makes them feel nice. Versus what will give them fulfillment in their lives forever. 
I find this very scary and true. Our world consumes us so much, that we see so very little of what actually matters and what should be priority in our lives. What makes it worse is, we can sit in our homes and do nothing about it, while living happily in apathy toward the culture in the world. Whether it be drugs, sex, or plaguing deception, people buy into it like it's the greatest thing ever without thinking twice about it. This is where we need to wake up and live for what is right, not what feels good. You know what I'm talking about if you've ever felt the pain of guilt, or conviction. Conviction is a good thing, it's really something that you should take into consideration when you have that little bit of pain in your stomach that you say is probably just you being nervous. That is what conviction feels like, especially if you've felt guilt after doing something, so just keep that in mind. Live with conviction, live without regret due to it. Thank you for reading. :D
