The Quirks, The Work and The Shirk

His name has two "syllabus". That's what he said. Put-sis. He is certainly a bit odd in speech and mannerism. His arms gangly and his head the wrong size for his body. He belongs as a side character on Gilmore Girls with his quirky personality. Entertaining for a few minutes and then starts to get boring. Suddenly he says something completely random and off the wall unintentionally causing me to laugh. This is my teacher for american history, and does he love american history.

I'm supposed to get a job. I don't know where to look. Certainly I lack motivation to do so. I think I'm hoping someone will just appear before me and offer me a job making magic wands.

Relationships. Why do so many people feel like they have to always be in a relationship? Sure no one wants to be alone, but being single isn't a bad thing. I can think of a few friends in particular that are never single longer than a few weeks. OR they claim to be single, but have that "FRIEND" on the side fulfilling that emotional need in their lives. The thing that has always bothered me is why people are in such a hurry to jump into a relationship when their lives are a wreck. How exactly can you devote such time to someone when your relationship with God is a joke. When you don't have the slightest idea of what your future holds? Devoting time to a relationship takes time away from the other things in life that are more important. It says in Matthew chapter 6 not to worry what you will eat, or what you will wear, and I would say who you should be in a relationship with. It says in verse 33 To seek the kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.

So I guess that's what all Christians really need to get back to. It is so easy to get distracted by what the world tells us we should do. The world tells us to acquire certain things to be successful, the world offers a multitude of distractions. But the Bible says to seek the kingdom of God above all else. And if we learn to live righteously, in a way that honors God, He will give us everything we need
