Many of you may have already received this email but i thought it was great so I'm going to post it.

Now this is a Living Bible:
His name is Tom, He has wild hair, wears a T-shirt with holes init, jeans, and no shoes. This was literally his wardrobe for his entire four years of college. He is brilliant. Kind of profound and very, very bright. He became a Christian while attending college. Across the street from the campus is a well-dressed, very conservative church. They want to develop a ministry to the students but are not sure how to go about it.
One day Tom decides to go there. He walks in with no shoes, jeans, his T-shirt, and wild hair. The service has already started and so Tom starts down the aisle looking for a seat. The church is completely packed and he can't find a seat. By now, people are really looking a bit uncomfortable, but no one says anything. Tome gets closer and closer to the pulpit, and when he realizes there are no seats, he just squats down down right on the carpet. By now the people are really uptight, and the tension in the air is thick.
About this time, the minister realizes that from way at the back of the church, a deacon is slowly making his way toward Tom. Now the deacon is in his eighties, has silver-gray hair, and a three-piece suit. A godly man, very elegant, very dignified, very courtly. He walks with a cane and, as he starts walking toward this boy, everyone is saying to themselves that you can't blame him for what he is about to do. How can you expect a man of his age and of his background to understand some college kid on the floor?
It takes a long time for the man to reach the boy. The church is utterly silent except for the clicking of the man's cane. All eyes are focused on him. You can't even hear anyone breathing. The minister can't even preach the sermon until the deacon does what he has to do, and now they see this elderly man drop his cane on the floor. With great difficulty, he lowers himself and sits down next to Tom and worships with him so he won't be alone.
Everyone chokes up with emotion. When the minister gains control, he says, "What I'm about to preach, you will never remember. What you have just seen, you will never forget."

'Be careful how you live. You may be the only Bible some people will ever read!'

This is a beautiful story. With several perfect morals. One that many may forget in the real world is that everyone can be a Christian and who are we to choose those that get to hear the word? We should show everyone no matter what they look like or how they act. They may be looking for a Savior and just be ignorant of the truth. Good luck everyone to live so that you never have to tell a soul you are a Christian because they see it in your life.

Each on of us has an influence on those around us. It might not seem like a large one but it doesn't matter. What we do with this influence is strictly up to us. God has a plan for our influence. If we are true followers of him those around us should see Him in us, they should see a good life not a burden. Being a Christian is something I'm very proud of, in the past I wasn't using my influence at school very much. This is dangerous, by not shedding our light on the world those in it will never feel uncomfortable in their darkness. I'm trying harder for the Lord and He's helping me and showing me that this is what I am meant to do. We are role models to everyone young or old. We should strive to be there for the children in our churches. As I said our actions not only encourage the young but also those who are older. Seeing a youth give their entire life to God strengthens them as well. We can choose how we act and we know how God wants us to act. Are those two things the same in your life? If not we must strive to change. For the past week I've tried to see the world from God's eyes what He would do and how He would do it. I encourage you my brothers and sisters to try this and do not give up at persecution which is bound to follow but delight in it. Work for a better life for you and those around you. God will be right behind you helping you trust in Him.
Hope everyone is well and to see you at TBS. I'm trying to change my life to be closer with God i will succeed I ask you to also turn to Him. Pray for me.

Well i hope everyone is well. We just had nearly a week off for the flu. I've got the shot so i should be good. I'm chilling at my house listening to Owl City.

I can't believe I'm through back into reality next Wednesday. I"m scared! :( lol I suppose i'll live. Golf has been long. I've played 90 holes since monday for over 400 strokes. Plus I'm playing another nine Sunday with our temporary preacher, Rick Christian. I'm tried and all you who think golf is a weeny sport you should see the blisters and calluses on my hands and feet. I'm captain this year with one of my other friends, Tyler. Its cool but I've got to give a little speech on monday at meet the team night. Bummer, but I will survive. I'm ready heres my schedule for next year fundamental drafting, honors trig, honors English 11, Advanced physics, psychology/sociology, AP stats, 20-21 century history, construction systems. Its pretty rough but we'll see what i can do i think i'll miss my half resource for drivers ed but oh well.

Oh yeah I'm going farther into the middle of no where on vacation. It'll be fun except I've got to get up every morning and drive back to golf practice. Bittersweet, but oh well. I'll have fun. Well I hope ya'll having a good summer. I'm kinda looking forward to school finally might be rebuilding my motorcycle this winter =) hopefully. Good luck in life.
