"He's Just a Friend"

"Too often, going after what feels good, means letting go of what you know is right. We are all about pleasure. Who wants to live in pain and suffering? No one. But sometimes, we have to give up the pleasure to get the real reward in life. Sin feels good most of the time. But where does it take us? Nowhere. Sin is death; righteousness is life. There is no way around it. We give up true life for mere moments of feel-good instant gratifying pleasure. But is it really worth it? Is it ever worth it to sacrifice true and eternal rewards for fleeting, mere moments of pleasure that in the end, get us nowhere? The only pleasure and reward worth having is the one that comes from doing what is right and waiting for God to honor our diligence. Not always the answer we want, because let's face it, we want what we want right now. But it's the truth - no matter how you slice it-this is life as a follower of Christ. Take it or leave it."
