I'm actually kind of surprised how much I've been enjoying this blogging. It's nice to be blogging for fun instead of for an assignment or something and it definitely is a break from all the stress of the week. So today is....
Day 4: Your views on Religion
Religion has become such a horrid concept in this country. Everyone is so into Love Jesus, that's all you need! Well, I do agree that Jesus is all we need, but what comes after we have Him? Doesn't loving Him and respecting Jesus mean that we want to do as He has asked us?
This is where religion comes in. No it's not a set of rules or regulations, though it is often portrayed that way, it is a choice to follow and obey. A happy choice to go the extra mile for the one you love.
Jesus gave us the "rules" so that we can have the happiest life possible and if we are truly following Him, those rules just become a part of who we are and what we want for ourselves.
For me, religion is loving an amazing Savior who asks only that I accept His gift and it is by accepting that gift that the religion is formed and honored.
