Lost blog :(
I got home after came yesterday and wrote this long blog about my experience and what I learnt from it. Unfortunately the dodgy server was down so when I clicked 'publish post' everything that I wrote was LOST!
Anyway in summary of what I wrote yesterday I want to live life as a follower of Christ and not of myself. And that means not just living for a cause, but 'crucifying' my old nature. This means giving up my emotional baggage, my feelings of insecurity and worthlessness and replacing it with the love of God.
I want to be a more consistent person, not a different person with a different character to the people in my life. I don't want to be 'Christian' just to church people and I don't want to put on a false pretense of being just the 'nice guy who likes to help out' to other people. I don't like this fakeness about myself, I want to be truthful and have some sort of integrity about me.

Amen dude, amen.
I know exactly what you mean. As I'm sitting here at work, watching the news of the pope supposedly dying, i'm moping about in self-pity over my shoddy knee, lack of health and general distaste at myself. I got a lot of so called "baggage" to give up. After all, dead men have no rights, dead men can't speak, dead men can't complain. Sometimes its hard to see it like that though.
Oh, wait. The pope's not dead. Not yet anyways. False alarm.
