Only Human



I just wanted to get a point across about how some christians are viewed. I know some people may think us Christians try to be perfect and that we can do no wrong. Well I am only human and I can only do so much. To be honest God expects us to fail, and that is because he knows we are human beings. He understands we make mistakes, but what he does want of us is to keep pressing on, even when we do miss that mark. I find it greatly annoying when people place us up on pedestals, and if we make one mistake people are right in your face about it. Look I am only human, and I mess up everyday somewhere along the line. I get mad, I get frustrated just like every other person out there. I will not throw it in someones face that I am a christian, and I will never think of myself as better. I know I am a mess at times and to be honest I hate my human nature very much. I hate having to struggle with things, and I wish at times that I was not a guy because lust is a huge problem among men today. My point here is to show others who may not understand christianity, that hey I make mistakes as well. I wish I could be a better person at times, but it does take work to improve. Anyways that's just been on my mind tonight about how some people tend to place pastors or leaders on pedestals expecting them to be perfect. Well cut them some slack people because they are only human, and many leaders have pressure coming at them from all sides and angles. They have peer pressure, they have pressure from the public. People try to convince them to do wrong to save a dollar or because it's easier to handle. Well the right choice is not always an easy win, and much of the time we have to sacrafice or take a wound in order for the right choices to be made. That's my little bit on this. God Bless
