WAKE UP!

today i've been really thinking about waking up, AWAKENING! and what i'm actually going through here. I read this one part in 'Hungry For More of Jesus' i'll quote it here:

'THE COST OF GOING ALL THE WAY WITH GOD

One of the fastest ways to lose friends is to go all the way with God. Once you become serious about spiritual matters - forsaking all your idols, taking your eyes off the things of this world, turning to Jesus with all of your heart and hungering
for more of Him - you suddenly become 'a religious fanatic.' And soon you'll experience the worst refection of your lifetime. -----In short, you were awakened, turned around, made broken and contrite in spirit, and God gave you a burden for His Church. And the result? Now your friends and family thing you're crazy. Instead of rejoicing with you or encouraging you, they ridicule you, mock you and call you a fanatic. 'What's happened to you?' they say. 'We don't even know who you are anymore, Why don't you go back to the way you used to be?' '

Anyway, that's how i've been feeling lately. Just because i'm really exited about Jesus, and tell my family and friends about all the things i've discoverd, THEY think i'm judging them. it's understandable, but REALLY? but if i had to choose between my fam and friend vs. Jesus, i WOULD totally choose Jesus, but i haven't been in a situation in which i have to choose ONE. i'm really thankful of that. cos my friends and fam mean A TON to me.. like SOOO much.. but i want to love Jesus more, and i'm working my way closer to Jesus... i'm really exited about all kinds of things Jesus has told me. and i'm just loving my life with JESUS, it's the only life i want to have..

OH AND NOW SPRING!! i love it. it's warm, it's sunny. it's soo nice!! :)
