Tired.

I'm tired. Tired of what you may ask. I'm tired of being labeled a hater, a hypocrite and a bigot. Tired of being accused of being hard hearted and closed minded all because I am Christian. Yes, I believe in Jesus, and I believe that the Bible is 100% accurate and without error. Just because we have differing opinions and beliefs doesn't mean that I hate you, or won't accept you. How many times have you ever seen me spout hatred or tear someone down because of their lifestyle? I am not the judge, I leave that up to God. My job is to point people to Jesus. Not to block the way. I have several family members and friends who live an alternate lifestyle. I do not treat them any differently than I do anyone else. I love them all the same. As a Christian pastor, I will not water down the Gospel when I preach. I will not change it or alter it to not offend someone. The Bible is God's word. A book on how we are supposed to live our lives. We can't pick and choose what we believe and what we don't believe. We either believe all of it, or none of it! I will never be ashamed to speak the name of Jesus. So, I am tired of being tired. We as Christians need to stand up for Jesus. Proclaim His name louder than before. We need to stop worrying and let God do His thing. All the praise and glory to God!
