I'm so caught up in being nice to people that I don't remember why I'm being nice to them. I think maybe one day they'll be like "Hey remember that Jacob Bagley kid... he was awesome!" But is this right at all? Should I try to radically change the worlds perspective on me? Or should I radically change the worlds perspective of itself?
Or should I just radically change the world...?
I'm so selfish. This whole acting nice and loving thing came about when I had my first "radical life change"... but then it just became habit. After I kind of started falling out of the word I was still being nice to people, but not for the same reason. My actions lost all meaning. If someone came up to me and asked "why are you doing this" I would say "because it's the nice thing to do" or something stupid like that. Why? Because my relationship with Jesus was not strong enough. Because I was so lazy and couldn't even talk to my God. Because my bible was collecting dust because I had better things to do.
If someone asked me "why" I couldn't even say just 2 words.
"Jesus Christ"
I can radically change the world with a smile, but not if that smile was powered by self gratification.
I want to change the world, not for me, but for the person I worship. Jesus Christ.
