Goals are deceptive. The unaimed arrow never misses.

I've been thinking.

A couple of us have been throwing words like "persecution" around, but remember our bible heroes, the ones off the top of my head that I can think of are Paul and Peter. And Daniel, from the Old Testament.

They were persecuted much worse for what they believe than anything I've ever seen on mindsay, and not only did they endure it, they rejoiced in it. Nothing made them prouder for the opportunity to be persecuted for the sake of the Christ, who they loved.

So just relax. Nothing I've read on mindsay has yet inspired tears of joy in me, like Peter's tears.

On another note, I'm not always in the mood to defend my faith every single time I log in to mindsay. I don't waver in my faith, but I don't always feel like being God's advocate. Not every day. My faith helps me be a better person. I don't want to always want to have to defend it.

I can endure this, though. My faith is strong enough to survive mindsay. Let me just relax a while, though. Kay?
