The train, it gets you everywhere and it can be a very crowded place, depending on the time of day... today was an interesting ride in the morning...I sat on the very first floor because for the first time in awhile there was actually some space! Of course as soon as I sit down a man in front of me who was on the phone hangs up, turns around, and then, starts talking to everyone... his voice was scratchy and you can tell he was drunk... he started talking about some woman, and then he started singing, it was all a little amusing, up untill the point where he started talking about God, and he said..." God almighty! Oh God, if there was a God...." this man was drunk, yes. But i felt bad for him, not because he was slow with his speech, or that he got up and off at the wrong stop and then came back, nor because he told himself that he would stop talking because he realized no one was listening... but I felt bad because he wasn't aware of the goodness of God. This man, on the train was not aware of his Heavenly Father. As bad as things may get, whether you are homeless, or you have no family, or maybe you've lost all kinds of hope, you are merely nothing, without the knowledge of God, and the love for your Heavenly Father. No matter how bad times may get, nor difficult our trials may become they can only become worst without a faith in our God and his son the savior of the world, Jesus Christ. God will always and forever continue to strengthen his followers :) Disruptive as he was I hope I can see him again, maybe I can show him a thing or two about God.
