I could make the next 5 days Friday Reflections with all the craziness going through my head, but today I would like for you to remember what you have probably forgotten.
Why do I assume you forgot? Cuz I did and all of the chatter that went with it is now gone. Funny how that works, isn’t it. We get all jacked up about a cause or an idea and then a few days goes by and
IT’S GONE!
A few months back, there was this thing called Lifeshare. To be honest, I don’t even remember what it was all about. Sure I could look it up and act like I have it all together, but that’s cheating. I do remember a few things we were ALL going to do as a result of lifeshare though.
- Do a Google Blog Search and enter terms like “I hate God” or “life sucks” or something that would allow you to know they were in need of Jesus, and then go comment on their blog and start a conversation.
- Get on Skype and pray with someone
- Do a Twitter search for the same terms in the first point. Twitter has blown up since then and NOW would be a great time for this.
- Make a Facebook or MySpace event and invite 50 of your friends to an online church event.
- Record your testimony and put it on YouTube. Yeah, at that point I was already doing Testimony Tuesday, but I’m sure they thought they were original with that idea
.
How easy is it in what I call our “2 second society” to forget? Sometimes we try to do good things and have good intentions, but we have so many of them that the really good ideas get passed over to get to the next one.
I HATE THAT!
So, today I have entered in my iCal a daily reminder to do all of these things. No, I won’t create an event every day, but I will attempt to make contact with someone who is struggling EVERY DAY! I ask that you join me….and this time
KEEP IT UP!
Don’t forget tomorrow. It’s freakin ridiculous how Jesus becomes so unimportant because of something else. Then, to justify it, we label it as Godly so we can excuse forgetting.
NO MORE!
I’m sick of it with myself and I’m sick of it with you. I don’t know how many hundreds of times I’ve read something that was gonna start and I’m all giddy and excited and then these bloggers don’t follow through. DUDE, it’s one thing to be miserably inconsistent in your own little bubble, but don’t advertise on your blog to the world and not follow through. I mean, COME ON….that’s common sense, right?
