Jude 1:24-25

Thoughts

No, this really isn’t all that in-depth, so don’t get tooo excited.

But I still want to share.

If you have a fake smile - don’t smile at all. I don’t want to see it.
If the ‘hello’ really means ‘my smile is fake, can you tell?’ - keep your mouth shut.
If everything is superficial, then why is it there at all?
And if that’s all it is, then what’s the point?

I’m talking to myself here - so don’t get all up in a tizzy here thinking I’m pointing fingers.

1 Peter 1:22 (New International Version)

Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from the heart.

UPDATE:

In response to Eric - this is NOT meant to be discouraging. Rather it’s meant as a reminder to be real with people. An encouragment to put more weight into relationships. This is something that has bothered me for a long time, due to how I grew up, blah blah blah. I grew up in a tight-knit missionary community without much choice about who you were friends with. There were only so many people. I got really close with a small group - and that has always been my idea of friendship. Back here in the US that is not nearly as often the case - again this is all from _my_ experience. I’m not much of a “group” person, as that involves many looser friendships (in my opinion). So the encouragment is to put more weight and importance on the friendships that _are_ there, even if it’s not how I grew up.
