So I've been noticing something a lot lately! I've been noticing that the people in our city swear like mad! And that's saying something considering I'm from The Rock...a place with Irish roots...the people there swear a lot however, not like they do here! Up here they drop the F-bomb every three words! And worst of all it doesn't need to be used! Like...okay I understand when someone is upset and what not but people here just use it as fillers..."that was f-ing funny" or "what the "f" was that guy wearing"! I hate it! At Blockbuster everyone swears, customers and employees alike! Is it a culture thing? I hope not but it seems to be. Has our world gotten so ignorant that we have a lack of good words so we fill in the spots with filth? This is when we, as Christians need to step in and look at our own life and words we speak. "Am I lacking intelligence in my words?" Since I've been at Blockbuster I've told everyone that I work with that I go to a Christian university, that my parents are ministers, and that I myself is, obviously, a Christian. So I have to watch what I say, I'm trying to make a good impression for my fellow Christians, and because I want my co-workers to see that not all Christians are these hypocritical or uptight types that you often meet or hear about! I know that if we just step up and show people that there is no need for that kind of language then maybe, just maybe our world will change! Agree? I hope so!
So with all that being said I ask my fellow believers, friends, and bros and sis's in Christ for their support in the knee department...(prayers for those who couldn't read my kryptic message!) It's tough in the world Christian trying to live like the J-man...my prayers are with you all as well! Thanks!
Oh Yeah...just a school update, I got my marks back and I rocked...surprisingly! I did a lot better then I thought I was going to!
