Bound to start some trouble...

2 post in one day is unusual for me but I have a rant to make. After reading some blogs today, being in church and just thinking about things I have reached a conclusion...I am sick of people talking about "Christian" things. Since I was 14 I have gone to church in some capacity but seen very few people put into action the things that they say. Now when it comes to being one of those people...I'm probably the freaking poster child and spokeswoman of living one way and doing the other. I'm a hypocrite more than I am not and will admit that I have done more harm in my 28 years than good. But it just bothers me to no end to hear career Christians talk about talking about being a Christian.

I have no need to sit at Starbucks and listen to people talking about "doing life with each other." I would rather be with my hellions in my classroom and see them get the fact that somebody cares about them. They are my community. I am with them day in and day out, watching them make mistakes and achieve unthinkable things.
I don't have to sit around and talk about the new slang Christian terms like "community." To me I would rather have friends that go about the business of helping you when you are hurting, give you a dose of reality when you need it and tell you to get over yourself when you need to lose the pity party. I have about 10 friends in my life that if I needed them I could count on them. Really count on them to help me. To listen to me and to guide me. I don't want to sit around and have conversations about things that I will never be able to achieve like having a quiet time every day or saving the world. I just want someone to help me when I need it and be a help when I can.

I'm tired of watching churches trying to be bigger and better than the rest. I'm tired of people trying to one up each other on the checklist of being a good Christian. Maybe I am just bitter but this is where I am right now.

This probably doesn't make sense to anyone but me.
