As I get up every morning, I am excited to get up. Why, you may ask. I have the Lord Jesus Christ in my heart! I was talking to a friend who put a saying on his Facebook profile, "Don't let the thing that catches you eye rule you, let the thing that captures your heart rule." So, I asked him what catches his heart. He just got mad and logged off. I ask you to pray for this young man. He has plenty of problems and doesn't hang out with the "right" crowd. He has told me that women rule his life, but not in a good way. He uses them as "pieces of meat", to get a girl, have sex with these girls, and then dump them. His influence that is around him alot is a 20 year old druggie, without a job, and has the same mindset as my friend. He got baptized last summer, but now he has just fallen into the same things that got him taken away from his mom. Yes, I said "his mom", because this guy is only 14-15... My heart breaks every time I read a stupid status like "F*** my life."
What catches my heart? The hearts of others around me. I want to cry every time a person goes awry. Many people with Asperger's syndrome don't have much apathy. I definitely have apathy! I embrace this as a gift from God! Why do we like to get in these situations where we continually sin?! I pray to GOD that my friends life would be changed. Pray that my heart doesn't go bad trying to teach him the way of the LORD!
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."--- Philippians 4:13
