LIFE

This is a sliver of a note I kept from... I think a church devo home group or something a few years back. I just wanted to share. I don't know who wrote it and/or passed it out, but I found it inspirational and kept it. The only thing I can nit pick on with the entire note would be that, I think including God into the picture is just as important as including Jesus too. Just my personal opinion though. Feel free to print it off and spread it around if you like. =)

Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how many people call you and it's not about who you've dated, are dating or haven't dated at all. It isn't about who you've kissed, what sport you play, or which guy or girl likes you. It's not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school. In fact, it's not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn't about if you have lots of friends, or if you are alone, and it's not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn't about that.

But, life is about who you love and who you hurt. It's about how you feel about yourself. It's about trust, happiness and compassion. It's about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It's about what you say and what you mean. It's about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. Most of all, it is about choosing to use your life to touch someone else's in a way that could never ave been achieved otherwise -- as Jesus would have done.

These choices are what life's about. Life is about Jesus.
