Revolution (Grace Vineyard Youth Group)

This is a reprint from an old Myspace blog of mine.

I do a lot here on MySpace and have had a lot of fun connecting with all of you and seeing what it is that interests you. I've gotten a chance to see a cool little window into your lives. Any time that you get to see deeper into someone's world you like some of what you see, and other things bother you.

The interesting thing about the internet is that we have this sense of annonymity. That is, we kind of feel indestructable and invisible at the same time that we are interacting with each other. But the difficult part of that is that sometimes we re-post, forward, or write the kind of thing that we would never say out loud in real life.

I know that there is a possibility of a very diverse group of people actually reading this and we are all in different places in life. But those of us who call ourselves Christians and try to live and act according to what Christ would want for us and our lives, have to represent that here on MySpace as well.

We go around wearing WWJD bracelets and have fish on the back of our cars, but we say things here that don't represent our beliefs at all. It is almost like we lead double lives sometimes: Our life online, and our real life.

I just want to encourage you. Next time you are writing a post, or forwarding an email, or writing one yourself...think about this and ask yourself
