eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we'll die.

.
matthew 6:31
"do not worry, saying, ‘what shall we eat?’ or ‘what shall we drink?’ or ‘what shall we wear?’ for the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. but seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

who really cares? i don't want no big huge house loaded with lots of stuff... who needs it? nothing really matters! don't worry about all the little things. take it easy, it's all good. live in the moment. don't stress about tomorrow, tomorrow will worry about itself. have the big picutre in your mind. so many people waste all their time and money on things that don't matter! i was reading ecclestiastes today...

5:10
"those who love money will never have enough"
5:15
"people who live only for wealth come to the end of their lives as naked and empty-handed as on the day they were born."
1:14
"everything under the sun is meanlingless, like chasing the wind."
3:11-12
"he has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God's work from beginning to end. so i concluded that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to enjoy themselves as long as they can."

nothing even matters ~ lauryn hill

now the skies could fall
not even if my boss should call
the world it seems so very small
'cause nothing even matters at all
-
nothing even matters
nothing even matters at all
nothing even matters
nothing even matters at all
-
these buildings could drift out to sea
some natural catastrophe
still there's no place I'd rather be
'cause nothing even matters to me
-
nothing even matters
nothing even matters to me
nothing even matters
nothing even matters to me
-
now you won't find me at no store
i have no time for manicures
with you it's never either or
'cause nothing even matters no more
-
nothing even matters
nothing even matters no more
nothing even matters
nothing even matters no more

...nothing but you...
...nothing but you...

more like You

resting in your presence
is all i really want, lord
sitting in your presence
is all i really ask for
...and i want to be more like you...
waiting in your presence
is all i really long for
staying in your presence
is all i really want, lord
...and i want to be more like you

(good song)
this post is based on my november 28th, and jessels march 4th posts...
i don't think that it's possible to be perfect, but Jesus is perfect, and he's calling us to be more like him. so what does he mean by that? what does he expect from us? i think it's kind of like, becoming like one of your friends. you hang out with them, and change little things about your attitude or character. that's how i see it. who would be a better person to do that with than Jesus anyways? he is selfless, giving, merciful, forgiving, loving, and such a good friend. i want to be a little more of that! we as christians should be striving for those things, and after all, the word christian means "little christ" right? and God wants us all to keep taking that next step closer to who he is.
Zephaniah 3:17
"The Lord your God is with you,
he is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
he will quiet you with his love,
he will rejoice over you with singing."
(this verse doesn't have anything to do with my post, but bob prayed it over me at esperanza and i though it was pretty sweet)

who i am

am not completely sure of who I am
I am living in the process of getting to know me.
Who I am changes everyday.

I want my life to have meaning. Not to live an empty life
I want a reason, a purpose.
why be alive if you have nothing to live for?

"every man dies, not every man really lives."

"Today is a gift, that’s why they call it the present"
do you ever feel like you're just "going through the motions" in life? ..eat.. ..sleep.. ..go to school.. ..go to youth.. ..go to church.. every day feels the same, and you are the same person as a week ago... you don't have to waste your time. come alive, and see the big picture. you learn something new each day. you change every day. you are a different person every time you wake up in the morning. every breath is a reminder of the glory of God, and an opertunity to hear from Him. your life doesn't have to be empty. it can be full of joy.
your whole entire life has led up to this moment.it's 5:54 on march 3rd 2005. there has never been a 5:55 yet. what will you do now?
