Frivolously Living

I find the general outlook and actions of my peers incredibly disturbing at times. I mean I am all for having a good time and enjoying life but without a purpose in one's life what is the point of existing at all. I for one am soo irritated with people who are complacent with where they are at. No desire to make an impact or even be productive or accomplish anything higher than their current circumstances ... What's the point? I just don't understand. Especially when they are Christians. As put by John Bevere, God designed us to be extraordinary. He made us in his image; therefore, we were created to make a difference and actually be extraordinary through his plan for our lives.

Perhaps what irritates me the most though is that most are soo wrapped up in meaningless things, we forget that there is a hurt and dying world that we are supposed to be helping. Think about how much time and emotion people spend on a person of the opposite sex when attempting to spark a relationship with them (when the "relationship" or whatever you prefer to call it will only last a few weeks maybe even a few months tops). Whether you want to admit it or not that is a lot of time and emotion.. now think about youth and young adults.. how much time and emotion do they put forth when you mention sex trafficking? Lets be honest the most on average a response would consist of is something to the effect of that's terrible and then move on.. Its incredibly sad to me that there are innocent children being kept in cages, starved to death, degraded, sold, and forced to commit sexual acts for a few dollars and the biggest concern on most young adults minds is that cute guy or girl that they are kinda of sorta "talking" to. Are you kidding me? How twisted and warped are our priorities when we are more upset when someone we are romantically interested suddenly starts dating someone else than about orphans are abducted and sold as sex slaves to be forever forgotten since there is no one to look for them? Why? How can we as humans be so self centered and frivolous? It is absolutely unbelievable yet at the same time its not. It has become the norm. Unfortunatly.
