easter

i honestly havent been to church since mothers day of last year so it felt good to actually make it to a service on easter sunday. Pastor Phoebe said something today that simplified a topic my cousin and i had couple days ago about being a "christian".

"Religion is mans way to God. Relationship is Gods way to man."

people live their lives saying im this religion, i go to church, etc... but saying those things really doesnt matter if you dont have a personal relationship with God.

find your religion to find God. and when you find God make sure you have the relationship. if the relationship isnt there, then you're just giving yourself a title with no meaning to it.

another thing that many mistakenly do.
they think people that go to church or quote verses or claim theyre a certain religion should be this oh so angelic/godly person. the thing is.. God didnt make ANYONE perfect. so remember, the next time you get bothered by someones imperfections... youre also not perfect yourself.

"1 "Stop judging so that you will not be judged. 2 Otherwise, you will be judged by the same standard you use to judge others. The standards you use for others will be applied to you. 3 So why do you see the piece of sawdust in another believer's eye and not notice the wooden beam in your own eye? 4 How can you say to another believer, 'Let me take the piece of sawdust out of your eye,' when you have a beam in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye. Then you will see clearly to remove the piece of sawdust from another believer's eye." Matthew 7:1-5

and because im blogging this... i admit that i, myself, is imperfect as well.

i hope every one had a safe and happy easter!
and for the record.. 7.2 earthquake. san diego is shakin things up. haha
