Deception

                         Me and my friend Caleb got an opportunity to work for my mennonite back round. We planted  male and female beet roots seperatley to create a new variety of beet seeds. It was hard work and yet it was a bit of fun too. But the mennonite back round is very much into the "do want you want when you are a teenager." Now Caleb had to leave for his other job, so he didn't quite work as long or stayed as late as I did. So he had no idea what went on when he wasn't there or what was said in German. Because he doesn't understand German. It's really hard not to try and fit in when they're talking about the parties they go to, or the alcohol they love to consume, or the advantage they take of girls ( they are a very judgemantal people)...basically what I'm trying to say is, that I got to be a witness to them. By not going along with them, but to tell the truth. The one girl I hung out with on Saturday was telling me all about her boyfriend and how they love to party on the weekend and be bad while they can, before work starts all over again on Monday. She asked me if Caleb and I were together...I said, "no, I'm not into the dating and marrying and all the other stuff that goes along with it." She literally thought I was insane not to love getting a new borfriend every once in a while and to have fun with the whole experience! I asked her if she was into the partying like the other girls and boys at work did. And she was like, "Oh yes! I love being able to get loose on the weekend and party and drink and stuff." So she in turn asked me the same question. And I said, " NO WAY!! I like to stay at home with a good book, and just be by myself. " Her jaw literally dropped open and she was speechless! What I'm trying to get across here, is that we need to be witnesses for the Lord, and to be a light for Him. It makes God really sad, when the people He created have that sort of mind set.You know, I told some of the girls that Caleb was heading to Toronto this year to the Bible Institute and to eventually go to places where he could be a light to those who didn't know the gospel. They were really extactic to hear that. God calls us to bring others to HIM! That they might have eternal life, and one day reside with Him  in heaven, rather than the firey Hell, because of their way of life and attitude toward people who aren't into what they are into! I would like to share a quote from a precept upon precept pamphlet we got. It say this;

                     "If you are confident in your Salvation and you are as excited as I am to experience these promises first hand let me ask you this question...,"Are you taking people with you?"   

   Have a great day as you bask in God's love and prtection for you!
