And We Call Ourselves Christians!

I’d say about 1 in 1,000 “Christians” have actually read the bible from cover to cover. Now this is a totally unfactual guess, but the point isn’t the numbers, its the fact that few of us have actually read everything.

I admit, I’m one of these lazy people who haven’t. However…I have started. I am now on page 9, Genesis 12. Praise the Lord!

This brings me to my second point — modern Christianity. We expect our pastors to tell the complete truth, but that’s too bad, because everyone’s interpretations are different, aren’t they? It would be best if we all developed our own opinions and knew all the facts, so no one could lie to us.

So I encourage everyone, read the bible.

This blog…

I’m making this blog into more of a Christian themed blog, as I have changed my blog message/subtitle thing from more of a personal oriented phrase to a general-Christian one.

I’ll continue with the occassional personal posts, but I’m adding more supportive spiritual content, for anyone who comes here in the future (few people ) and sees it.

Maybe they’ll learn something.

I know I learn from my own posts sometimes, especially when I fail. Oh wait, that means always.

Living with Moderation, Self-Control

This is really something I’ve struggled with in the past couple of years, well rather, my whole life. From…managing my time, self enjoyment, and the such, I really haven’t been the most controlled person. I tend to follow my desires without listening to that small part in me that warns me of the dangers.

It’s contributed to my late-sleeping habits, but also just a rushed lifestyle that just doesn’t satisfy me. In the next few weeks, I’ll really be pushing to have more control in my life, both time-wise and in other ways.

So a list I’ve compiled…

• pointless time on the computer
• lazyness around the house
• excessive eating
• hmm…that more secretive guy thing ;]

God help me!
