The times they are a-changing...

Well, it's been awhile since I last posted and lots of things have been happening, big things, but none of them are technically happening to me. It seems like everyone around is me is getting struck with tragedies. My friend's grandfather unexpectedly died this morning, I know another person who's dad just died, another friend's best friend was killed in a bicycle accident, my neighbor's house caught fire and I found out this past week that my next door neighbor committed suicide after his wife moved out. All these horrible things keep happening, but none of them truly happen to me, but holy crap can you say thought-provoking. Perspective really is an amazing part of life isn't it? It's things like this that happen and all I can say is "How long O, Lord must we wait?" It's that desperation for Christ to come and fix this entire world. It shows how truly screwed up this entire world is, but more importantly shows the undeniable need for someone to save us. I can't imagine going through any of those things without the hope of Christ, because what other hope is there? Bad things will not stop happening in this world, and we can't do anything to stop bad things from happening, So what do we do? Well, we just have to do what Christ taught us to do, spread the Gospel, and give others that same hope that you and I have, that hope that this is not the end, that this life is most certainly not as good as it gets. This place is temporary, and what is life but a vapor? I don't know, It just really shows the dire need to spread the Gospel to everyone. Pray for people that are going through rough times, it seems like everyone is lately. God's Blessings, Gillian
