I am a Christian. I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savor. I was baptized and have publicly proclaim Christ as my savor. I try very hard to following the teachings of Christ and seek out God's will for my life. I ask for forgiveness when I fall.. But even though I am a Christian, it seems my views on some issues are very different then other Christians. This sometimes puts me at odds with follow Christians. I have always seen things differently then other people and have followed my own mind. Some Christians would say " you can not be a true Christan if you support this issue, or if you don't vote a certain way. For or against something". But try as I might to "fit" in with fellow Christians on their political views, I simply can not. It could be because I never did "fit in". It maybe because I have had friends who did not fit in as well. I do not claim to know all things .As far as my political ideals go, I accept that what I believe is the right way now. Later, it maybe shown to me to not be the right way. The same could be said for my spiritual believes. For the past few years I have felt what I think is a calling. A calling to show the world what a follower of Christ really is. Or at less what I believe a follower of Christ should be. For me it is not about supporting this "issue" or being against this "issue". For me it is about caring for my fellow man. I desire to do this but am unsure how to go about. So I look for opportunists that may come along. Even something as simple as taking the time to help an elderly person in the grocery store to find an item they are looking for. Anyway, I do not know why I am telling you all of this. I just want to grow in my faith and understand that no matter how old I get, I will always be growing in my faith.
