I think we wear our "faith" on our sleeves as a badge and in the process give Christ a bad name. But on the flip, in our efforts to be Relevant, we hide it under the guise of cool. I know myself I worry too much about how everyone sees me and in doing so put the focus in the wrong place. I worry more about looking good to someone than I worry about the actual person.

Also God has been on my heart asking some tough questions. I find myself wondering if I really believe he loves me and forgives me. I say I do in my words, but I let guilt build up and pull me away. I think I can never live up to what I feel God wants me to do because I have screwed up so much.

So yea, I am learning to be loved as well as learning to love.
