So my best friend from Elementary school got married Sat. Memories of us hanging out flashed before me during the reception while we were all dancing. The guy i laughed with and broke stuff with and got in trouble with has a family now. It was just kind of mind boggling. It was also interesting this weekend because I was the only religious one who was part of the wedding. Everyone was pretty much a partier so i was  quickly labeled the good groomsman or the nice groomsman, my personal favorite was when Matthew (groom) called me the moral ancor of the group it made a good laugh. It was interesting though that i was never picked on or pressured, i actually felt respected to a degree and even had the one or two conversation about the church and the goods and bads about it. Everyone just kind of shrugged the fact that i didnt want to get drunk. So it got me pondering about trails we are promised to have in our christian walk and I was wondering if my trial was different but no less miserable than the other. You see people open up to me, on a regular basis. No one is ussually offended by my faith or threatened but they are open with there disagreement or plain out disobedience to the Lord. It got me thinking because sometimes I am heartbroken over the people I can't help, the people who know what i believe see the difference but just don't care about it. I wonder if my trials sometimes is that no one is going to stab me or beat me up physically but will love me and I love them but will still opening reject Jesus Christ right in my face and the only thing i can do is watch a try again...... i was just wondering that a little this weekend. Well Pray for my friend Matthew and Carly they are married and seem very much in love i only hope they will find a love for Christ as well. See ya

hey buddy!

I was pondering over similar situations like this that I have at work. It's sorta down the road of "all religion is good" and "don't talk about religion if you disagree because it's a touchy subject"...I don't know how to be a witness except by my actions. Aren't words necessary at times? It is easy to fall into their "I don't care" mentality. Stay strong.

yeah, REALLY weird when your best friend gets married isn't it? I still haven't gotten used to it and it's been almost 6 months. Thanks for the callback by the way, loser. lol
