Unreal: The Good and Bad

The bad

It's unreal the amount of people who go to sleep on an empty stomach.

Unreal: The suicide bomber who runs into a building and blast himself into oblivion.

Unreal: The single mom fighting to support two kids.

Unreal: All the kids who sleep outside, exposed to violence, death, and drugs things kids should not know about.

Unreal: The disdain people show to each other, because of .......

Unreal: The solider who served in Iraq comes back to his country with only two limbs.

Unreal: Of all the stories we hear of young women being raped.

Unreal Of all the kids who are bullied by others, so much so, they kill themselves.

Unreal: The amount of homeless people we pass up everyday

Unreal: All the kids in Africa that have AIDS.

Unreal: All the kids across the Mexican border who live in poverty are only miles away from the richest nation in the world.

There are a lot of unreal things that are bad, heart wrenching, and simply avoidable. In my life, I have seen unreal things. I have seen people pushed to the limit. I have seen people cry, starve, because no one cared. But for every unreal situation, there is unreal love, compassion, and understanding.

The good

The unreal love displayed on the cross, so that we may live a new life. So that, we may not drown and die in our sin. That our afflictions would not scar us forever. That we would be able to share this same love, compassion, and understanding.

Unreal: The love our parents show us.

Unreal: The thousands of unsung heroes who help those in dire need.

Unreal: The teachers who motivate kids to pass school so, they too can be educated for the future.

Unreal: The amount of people willing to donate clothes, food to the less fortunate.

Unreal: The people week in and week out serve their community in a way that is not headlined to the masses.

Unreal: The love that is shown to complete strangers.

Unreal: The patience and love shown to those who help kids/adults with special needs.

Unreal: All the organizations and ministries that help the poor, disabled, and their communities.

Unreal: The Love of Our Savior

Unreal, unreal ......

Our world is full of unreal acts. We all see the good and the bad. Its our jobs to respond, in a way that benefits both parties. We have the capability to do a lot unreal things that could be earth- shattering. Are you in? Lets be unreal and change the world.

Jesus was unreal, his love, mercy and grace is still unreal.
Let us, follow His example until the very end.
