IF YOU ARE NOT FAMOUS YOU ARE.....
NOT IMPORTANT!!!
"ISN'T THAT WHAT YOU BELIEVE???"
I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO READ THIS. IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE IN GOD...THAT IS FINE. I NEVER WRITE TO CONDEMN, BUT FOR WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE. LOOK PAST THE BIBLE VERSES AND UNDERSTAND THE MEANING.
TOP 9THINGS YOU HAVE IN COMMON WITH FAMOUS PEOPLE
NUMBER # 9
TAKING A CRAP !!!
EXPLANATION:
- We all have to go to the bathroom at some point!!!! This includes celebrities. Their bathrooms may be a bit fancier, but they still gotta go.
"6 We have all become like one who is unclean,
and all our
righteous deeds are like a polluted garment (Isaiah 64:6)."
NUMBER # 8
A STRONG DESIRE TO BE LOVED !!!
EXPLANATION:
- Everyone desires to be loved.
"For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor e
principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height
nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the
love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8:38-39)."
NUMBER # 7
SOMETIMES LIFE JUST SUCKS !!!
EXPLANATION:
2" Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds (James 1:2)."
NUMBER # 6
SICKNESS.....?????
EXPLANATION:
Good health can not be sold or bought. Colds, Cancer, AIDS, STI, Heart disease, Mental Illness.....Everyone is susceptible to this.
9 "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. " Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong "( 2 Corinthians 12:9 - 10)."
SUSCEPTIBLE TO ADDICTION !!!
EXPLANATION:
"6 For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the
ungodly. 7 For one will scarcely die for a righteous person - though
perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die
NUMBER # 4
FOOLISH/ LACK OF WISDOM !!!
EXPLANATION:
Rich, poor, educated, beautiful, sick or happy has nothing to do with wisdom on this earth.
Both are extremely foolish.
Both lack wisdom.
""7 The fear of the Lord is the
beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction (Psalm 111:10)."
"2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding,
but only in
expressing his opinion (Proverbs18:20)."

NUMBER # 3
LIFE !!!
EXPLANATION:
- No your dog did not give birth to you.
"26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.
And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the
heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping
thing that creeps on the earth. " 27 So God created man in his own
image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created
them (Genesis 1:26-27).
NUMBER # 2
PLANET EARTH !!!
EXPLANATION:
"31 And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very
good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day (Genesis 1:31)."
NUMBER # 1
DEATH !!!
EXPLANATION:
"All things come alike to all: there is one
event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to
the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the
good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath (Ecclesiastes 9:2)."
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL ABOUT ME IF I TOLD YOU I WAS RICH AND FAMOUS?
Without taking a poll, I already know the answer. When people believe someone is famous, they are amazed and in awe of them. Many people will either try to become best friends with that individual, or get jealous and shy away.
"The poor are shunned even by their neighbors, but the rich have many friends (Proverbs 14:20)."
FACT:
A person who lives in poverty, immediately loses the respect of many people.
This is the typical way human beings think. We are trained to honor those who do well for themselves and look down upon the poor. In the eyes of many, a person who is working at McDonalds or cleaning toilets, is not as valuable as the CEO of a major company.
***MONEY AND FAME, DO NOT MAKE YOU MORE IMPORTANT***
***BEING POOR, DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE LESS IMPORTNT***
BOTH ARE EQUALLY IMPORTANT !!!
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life John 3:16)."
Never judge a person on their economic, education or social status. None of these material things matter. They are nice to have, but when you leave this earth, you will go out with the same thing you came in with.....NOTHING!
"Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked I will depart. The LORD gave and
the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised ( Job 1:21)."
I encourage people to change their view of the world. Stop looking at famous icons and praising them, or wishing you were them.
Our achievements have little to do with us. Yes, you may have worked hard for what you have, but, no one is in control of how much they receive in this lifetime.
Many wealthy individuals lead a life fearing they will lose everything. They are constantly protecting their items, always forgetting to protect the most important thing.
IF YOU ARE ONLY FOCUSED ON CLIMBING UP THE CORPORATE LADDER, YOU ARE CURRENTLY FALLING FROM THE TRUTH.
"15 And he said to them, "Take care, and be on your guard against
all covetousness, for ones life does not consist in the abundance of his
possessions (Luke 12:15). "
THE TRUTH:
We are all important. The guy cleaning your floors, is loved as much as you. He may have a wife, kids, nieces, nephews, friends, or grandchildren who think the world of him. You may never know, but.....HE IS UNCONDITIONALLY LOVED WHERE IT COUNTS.
Possessions come and go. Never determine your view of an individual based on their name or social status.
WHO I AM HAS NOTHING TO DO HOW MUCH I HAVE.
- Materialistic things do not define me.
- My pictures do not tell you anything about my life story.
- My clothes say nothing.
- My writing only indicates I am able to communicate with words
- My appearance is just an outer shell
- My home is temporary
- My materials are fun....but still temporary.
- My degree is not me.......
WHO I AM:
1. An extreme intovert.
2. Not perfect.
3. Love GOD my family....this includes friends.
4. Quiet & fun loving.
5. Too truthful for my own good.
6. Animal lover.
7. Sarcastic.
8. Not perfect.
9. Very creative.
10. Do not enjoy the company of many people.
VERY FEW PEOPLE TRULY KNOW ME....
"9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare,
into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and
destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of
evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith
and pierced themselves with many )."
WE ARE ALL LOVED...EQUALLY.....INCLUDING THE PERSON YOU DISLIKE THE MOST. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND RECOGNIZE THAT FAME, MONEY AND POSSESSIONS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH WHO A PERSON IS AND WHERE THEY ARE GOING.
