Scared Of Living Where You Do? by Jackie24: 5:33am On Mar 29, 2006 |
I am American and I love my country, I however feel very sad for everyone who lives here because all of the parables about rich men and poverty lead us to believe that this country is far too rich for it's own good. Now we all live here comfortably and the deomocracy is just great, . But it's difficult to think day to day that just being here and living a normal American life has Christ frowing over me. I grew up in a [techinically] one bedroom house with my parents, older brother and eventually little brother. Neither parent went to college and got married early so life was tough and we barely got by, but this would be such a blessing to anyone from a 3rd world country. Just knowing that even as a lower class citizen in the US, a person may also be a rich man in God's eyes. Does anyone else even think about such things? What are your opinions? My only comfort is my dream to visit other countries during the coarse of my life, countries with less and spend time among their simplicity and pureity. Maybe to do some good, to make some friends, to learn new things. Anyway, feedback please. |

Why do you think CHrist is frowning over your normal American life? |
