Minds

I am really tired of closed mindedness.
I am tired of people hating on Christianity when they've only glimpsed it. if even that.
I am tired of how they talk about how closed minded Christians are, when in thinking that, they themselves are being closed minded.

and they don't see it.
it's just "cool" to hate Christianity. and yes, I know. Christianity has it's faults. I don't love the religion myself but I have been loved in the Church and I am convinced God is in these great friends I've grown up around.

I call myself a Christian. I believe Jesus is the Son of God and he rose from the grave. I'm not sure I believe he's coming again (literally anyway) but only because I have never taken the time to study that particular belief myself and I didn't even know Christians believed that until a couple years ago... (ha..ha..)
But labels aren't what matter. Sometimes I hesitate to call myself a Christian because of what I know others will automatically assume when that word is uttered. I don't think that's wrong. Is it wrong?

I have made new friends this year and experienced new things. And it just frustrates me how black and white people think things are. How "right" people think they are and how "wrong" everyone else is.

I hope I can represent the God I know in my daily life and help change the way people see Jesus and His people.
