Deus nobiscum, quis contra?
probably the only good thing about being able to take latin class is having awesome latin phrases that you don't understand.
without action, faith is dead.
sine actio, fides est mortuum. oh yeah, like a boss.
recently, i've had another opportunity to help and share to the homeless. while it was more of a casual encounter with them, it was still nice to be able to help since iamappa. i noticed that coming back to a homeless man was just as awkward as it was back in december. why was it so awkward? why did it feel so different? (it wasn't that different)
practice!
i've written a qt on it before, and it's to practice. you don't do something once nicely and never do it again. the time you spend not practicing can be the time someone else is practicing to be better than you. now it doesn't make much sense for someone to be "better than you at helping the homeless" but being able to help someone has become such a challenge.
would you rather die or give someone some food, some metro fare, and maybe a blanket? an "i love you"? make a new friend?
people have alienated others and separated themselves from others because of social status. okay, so homeless people are not the safest people to be around, so why go alone? perhaps it sounds weird to simply go to homeless people and speak to them, because they would definitely be weirded out. but put yourself in someone else's shoes for once.
it really upsets me to see cocky people who think they're too good to help others. how can anyone be too good to help another person? if you're too good, helping should be the first on your mind if you're so "good"
everyone fears to lose what they have because it's all about them. what more can this world offer? why does it matter so much for someone to be a christian, are we a totally different people now? sometimes i feel anxious to tell someone i have to go to church instead of chilling with them. but that's life, if you can't simply tell your friends no, because you would rather go to church; then why bother be a christian?
if you would want to be the same as everyone else, then just go do it.
maybe i'm being way too harsh, but one of my biggest pet peeves are posers. why pretend you go to church for god when it's just someone else? these things i don't understand.
doing good versus making yourself feel good.
joy - jesus others you
what are you so scared about?
deus nobiscum, quis contra?
god is with us, who can be against (us)?
