So lately I have realized just how different I am from the people I work with
Most of the people I work with are my age and in school
But I am so completely different, I really don' t like being around them all that much
The common topic of choice is what they did the night before when they were drunk
If they remember anything, it is usually completely ridiculous and stupid
Is this what "normal" people do?
when I say "normal" I mean those who are not Christians
I mean people with something in life and death to look forward to
I must say that it is a pretty excuse for exsistance
and that's all it is
Exsistance, merely going from one pay check to the next
one girl to the next
one bottle to the next
How sad is that?
I can not stand to stand there and listen to their school girl babbling
I have nothing whatsoever in common with any of them
I can't even talk to them about music
No taste, tact, reason, whatever.......
I don't fit in at all
And yet they they all love me
They all are super nice and friendly
They know why I don't drink, why I wear a purity ring, that I go to a Christian school
And yet they love me
Maybe that's why I am there
A light in a dark place
I know that's touting my own horn a little, but maybe just.....
I can be a witness through my actions and speech......
Now I am getting preachy........but it makes sense
Maybe God put me with those people in order that I might reach just one
He made me so sensitive towards their actions so that maybe I might not take after them
I have slipped a little
but I am trying to catch myself
So yes, I can't stand the people I work with
But I ache for their exsistance
I must love them
I must be an example
I must be Jesus to those He came to save.....to love them as He did
Rescue is coming........
