Bek feels like a rant

1. If you’re a Christian and you’re going to vote this year, please, please research the party you are going to vote for. Don’t just base your decision on one advertisement or base it on “oh, he looks alright”. Research people, RESEARCH! It’s not that hard to look up a Party’s website and go through their policy! For goodness sakes, I am sick of hearing Christians go on about politics and making “informed” (being sarcastic) decisions, but never ever, look into the party they are going to vote for. I can’t stress enough how important it is for us to research and look into these things. Also, we as Christians can’t always rely on the government to do the right thing. We can’t continually wait on the government to do the right thing, and do nothing ourselves. We cannot continue to pass the buck. Stand up and take responsibility for goodness sake!

2. Churches really don’t handle “singledom” very well. I know too many young Christians who are fed the lie that there is someone out there for everyone and that you just have to find him/her. What if that is not in God’s plan for them? Why do churches continually pump out the promise of marriage and happiness, and then don’t know how to deal with those who slip into depression because it hasn’t come true for them? If you’re not married by 21, you’re an old maid. Placed on the shelf and left to your own devices which really only include trying to find someone on some cheesy online Christian dating service. We need to get real about the fact that not all of us will marry. We need to start providing and including those who remain single. AHHHHH!!! I’m sick of it…and I’m MARRIED!!

3. Hmmm…all things come in 3’s. What else is there? I am sick of the delay in the train coming south. All of us on the bus this morning watched the test train go past, and break down over the bridge. AHHH!! Alana McTiernan has a lot to answer for!! Us southerners are not a pretty bunch, and I’m sure she wouldn’t like us knocking on her door tonight.

Sigh…
