Well, last night I found myself really wondering about priorties in our Christian lives.
As, I was walking to the skytrain station with a few friends, they were having a discussion about what they were going to do that night, beacause they were having a sleepover. My suggestion was that they should maybe have a bible study. And as a response to my suggestion, one of my friends had said, "how about I don't want to." At this I was actually quite shocked. Coming from people who commited their lives to christ and who want to know God better. How are we sopose to know God more, if we don't do anything about it. We can't expect it to just be placed in our laps.
Truly, where are our hearts if we are not even wanting to read the bible, but instead watch TV. Also, I'm not saying that watching TV is bad or anything, or that I'm expecting my friends to be "perfect" or anything. I just find that there needs to be more focus in our Christian lives, and have our priorties strait. Also, I'm not saying that I'm perfect either, or that I have this all down, but I reconize it, and know it needs to change.
God first, then other things flow from it.
If you notice that something is not right, or that you know your not doing well in bible reading or whatever it might be, fight it and change it!

It might be a good idea for you to, just start conversations that will lead to needing to look in the bible for answers, that way its like a bible study without being offical.. that way it's still hanning out with friends, but also looking into the word
Haha...
Couldn't have put it better myself
Or Could I?
Well whatever...

hey you,
I'm so glad that you are being the presence of Christ among your friends. That's so exciting. I'm so glad that the Holy Spirit is opening your eyes up to what intimacy with Jesus looks like every day.
You're cool.
Can't wait till you come to visit.
Kathleen.
