I doubt you could care less

I have realised something over the past few days; no one cares.

At least, it seems very few people do.

I am a person who boycotts Coca-cola and Nestle because of their unethical practice.

I am a person who is opposed to war because it kills people unnecessarily.

I am a person who tells people these things, I tell them how I try to live in a way that promotes lives of liberty across the world. I tell them why I think war is bad and why I think starving babies is not a good marketing strategy.

And do you know something? Not one of the people I've told could care less. Each and every one believes a boycott is useless, that war is a necessity and that I am making no difference and should give up.

I personally do not understand why war is necessary or why multinational companies get away with murder.

I don't think most people do, but then most people don't care.

Love

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." The Bible

Put your name in the place of love, and see which boxes you tick.

Earlier I was in Tesco and gave the lady in front of me a pound for her shopping as she was just short. She was so grateful, I couldn't get over it.

She said she'd pay me back next time she sees me.

What a wonderful lady.

You see, recently I have been down and out but this lady has replenished my faith. I don't really understand how, but I suppose it is like Albert Einstein said,

"Only a life lived for others is worth living."

There's a whole world out there waiting to be loved, and it'll be worth it.

Jesus is...

Who is Jesus?

What is Jesus?

Where is Jesus?

How is Jesus?

Why is Jesus?

Jesus is apparently the Messiah.

Jesus is loving.

Jesus is serving.

Jesus is compelling.

Jesus is contentious.

Jesus is mysterious.

Jesus is...?

My thoughts on some words

There is something beautiful in the words I discovered the other day.

"Theology is the Church on a mission reflecting on its message, its identity, its meaning."

That is to say theology is not the reason the Church does mission work, helping and serving people across the world, but rather mission is the reason people turn to theology; to wonder upon a God of love so powerful and yet so gentle. A God who cannot be understood, but who can be questioned and who sometimes answers.

I hope that is clear.

What do you make of these words?
