8/5/2009 Laws

Do you notice that everyday we have laws that we must abide by? We have rules and regulations that we must follow. We must follow these because they are the laws of the United States of America and that if we don't follow them, there are consequences that could take action for not following those laws. I think that is a beautiful thing that we have laws because we must keep everything orderly so nobody gets hurt or out of line. But do you ever contemplate and think that why do we pay so much attention to these laws, and not God's laws??? That really is mind boggling to me. I say this over and over, but it never gets old saying it "everything here is TEMPORARY!" Why do we spend so much time obsessing about earthly possessions and treasures when they are all only temporary? We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for God, and Jesus's love for us. He has forgiven us from all sin, as long as we have love for him, strong faith, forgiveness, and love for one another. Why aren't we focusing on that? That seems like the most important law to me!! We have this thing called the Ten Commandments, in case you forgot about them here they are:

1 You shall have no other Gods but me.

2 You shall not make for yourself any idol, nor bow down to it or worship it.

3 You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.

4 You shall remember and keep the Sabbath day holy.

5 Respect your father and mother.

6 You must not kill.

7 You must not commit adultery.

8 You must not steal.

9 You must not give false evidence against your neighbor.

10You must not be envious of your neighbor's goods. You shall not be envious of his house nor his wife, nor anything that belongs to your neighbor.

Now why aren't we so strict about following these laws? This should be our number one priority. I will tell you this much, it takes something or someone to open your eyes up fully to see that this world has nothing good to offer it really doesn't, and that we shouldn't want to "fit" in this world or in this "society" because it has nothing good to offer, it is just full of sin, and violence, and mixed up priorities. We should not want to be classified in this society because it is so mixed up. Do you ever go to church? And if you do why aren't people more excited to be there? Heck half of the time there are more empty seats then filled seats. That is wrong, I don't care what religion you are or what the excuse is but Jesus died for all of man kind, and we can't simply go and give him our offering? Why is that? Too lazy, stayed up too late the night before? This world really needs to change before we ruin everything that we have been given by God. It really just saddens me. It saddens me to see so many people with good hearts mixed in this society of how we "should be" or how cool we are, and that is just all bull. Stop caring about what others think, and start thinking of God, and putting him first.
