The Lord blessed me with many friends. The Lord bless me with much knowledge, but I am not willing to "sprout" them.
Do I talk them yes. Like a lot. No one in church or cf does not know what I speak about. No one that I know does not know what I live for and whom do I worship. But do I demonstrate that? That entirely is another story.
For instance, to tell everyone 400 reasons why drinking is bad is just too easy, but when it comes to living it out alone, goodness, it is hard. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, I don't go round having sex with every girl I meet, but to tell everyone to not and why, now that's.... a different story all together. You might ask me, where is the obligation? You are already doing well by living the life according to the ways of God, people can see, and people know what a Godly person is like.

My friends don't ask me to drink, watch porn with them because they know I don't do these. They know how much against my principles these are, and how much it would have already offended my God so to speak, but for me to tell them why and continue from there, I guess my face is way too thick for telling truth now a days. The most hypocritical thing is, I am actually waiting for someone else to make such a stand, then I tag along from the back. If no one does, I stand behind and watch without participating, but I hide in my own heaven, and not tell the rest about hell.
As I watch my own friends, I feel more and more remorse by the day. All the opportunities that I throw away by the day for no apparent reason that I can use and I can't even call these being hard on myself because regardless of how many comforts or reasoning pour out, I know deep down in me by the holy spirit that I or any Christian have no excuse.
Stand up for my faith huh.
I'm already losing the "it" to be capable of preaching it.
