Changes

Posted In: Blog

Some things seemed to change on the outside while I was in prison. Facebook became popular. I had no idea of what “Like us on Facebook” meant. I’m still not sure.

People cough into their elbows. Still can’t get used to that.

Whenever I drive someone is always right on my bumper. That could be because I am driving 5 miles under the speed limit. The last thing I need is a ticket.

But the biggest change is people seem to be so angry. Maybe I never noticed before because I was so blinded by my sin, but I sure do now.

Whenever I go into a grocery store it seems like most of the people are mad at the world. Many have their arms draped over their shopping cart, staring down at the floor or at their cell phones in an effort to avoid any social interaction. I was telling my son it reminds me of Ghostbusters 2 when the slime under the city was causing everyone to have short tempers.

In contrast when I go into church everyone has their heads up, smiling and visiting with each other, excited about the worship service they are attending.

I guess it goes to show you something’s never change. The Bible tells us Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today and forever. Thank God some things never change.
