Ok, so I had a chance to witness (in a sense) tonight to about...10 people. I went on this thing to ask questions about where to find wheat, corn, and soy free foods, and actually got responses and sites that sell these foods! Along with ideas for other food mixtures that I hadn't thought of, it was really cool! I guess a thought came to mind about what I had just read in my "Do Hard Things" book, about how we should use our advanced electronic world to reach other people. We have cell phones, computers, email, facebook, chat rooms...all sorts of places that reach people that go all across the world, yet we use them for chit chat and nothing of importance. So...I sort of wrote out the question "Anyone knows that, to have a creation, there MUST (no doubt whatsoever) be a creator. Then why do people doubt there is a God, when His creation is shown all around!?!" And, wowee...got lots of replies and stated why there is proof of God, and why I believed what I believed (even got asked if I was homeschooled! Weird.) Anyways...Mama said it wasn't a good idea, told me to stop replying. I find it amazing the amount of people who actually DID believe in God, but thought people in today's world pushed too harsh of views on other people, so, they were sorry, if you do that then you're not really a Christian. Then someone brought up the fact that Jesus wasn't associated in politics, and told His disciples not to either...so therefore politics are bad and we shouldn't go anywhere near them! Yikes! I am starting to wonder where these people find their views on things...and NO WONDER there aren't many people understanding what being a Christian is all about! There are a bunch of weirdoes out there! I now have lots of people to pray for, however. I so wish I could make my own website where things like this could be brought up and discussed, without having the fear that someone will say something inappropriate or...just...bad. I was shaking SO BAD, and I wasn't even TALKING to these people! Oh my word! But, it felt so great to get the gospel out there, the little amount it was...to people who were obviously confused about Christianity! Most people on there said something about "religion" and I said that being a Christian isn't a religion, and it's not that we're a bunch of high and mightiest who are trying to be better people than everyone else out there. I don't understand why people think we should become Christians simply to make people think we're good people. I'm no better than anyone else in the world, I don't have ONE DROP of more worth than all these other people, I have just chosen to repent of all the wrong I've done, and place my faith, trust, a life in the hand of Jesus Christ.

Anyway, please pray for these people...and all others who have been blinded or lied to as much as them about who God is, and what He's done. I do feel so sorry for all the people who live in confusion. An Atheist wrote on there and said he didn't believe in God, but a high power...or something like that, but he didn't KNOW anything for sure. How horrible to live your life like that! Not knowing if you would live again after you die on earth, not knowing if you're simply supposed to do good to get to heaven...not believing there IS a heaven! *shaking head* Made me sad, actually.

Anyways...got my prayer cut out for me now! I know I most likely won't ever meet, or talk to these people again...but I so wish they could have their eyes opened.

God bless, and have a wonderful night!
