Unworthy.

*phone rings*
Jen: Hello?
Her Mother: Hello Jen.
Jen: Hello Aunty! How are you?
Her Mother: I’m good thank you, Jen. How are you?
Jen: I’m very well thanks.. what’s up?
Her Mother: Well, I heard you’re going out with _ tonight.
Jen: No, not tonight. I’m probably meeting her this Sunday. Did you need something?
Her Mother: I just wanted to ask a favor, Jen.
Jen: Of course, what do you need?
Her Mother: I wanted to ask you to talk about the Lord with _.
Jen: … okaaaaaay…
Her Mother: … you know how daughters can be. They’ll listen if their friends tell them but if it comes from their parents, they’re not interested.
Jen: ..Uh… huh…
Her Mother: Maybe you can ask her to come to church with you or something. Why don’t you invite her sometime?
Jen: I understand…
Her Mother: Ok, thanks Jenny.
Jen: …It’s ok…
Her Mother: I’ll talk to you soon ok? Send my love to your parents.
Jen: Ok Aunty. Bye.

That is sooo the kind of stunt my mother would’ve pulled.

I don’t feel worthy to share the message with people. Even my friends. Unless they ask me something. I mean, honestly… what the hell do I know about Christ anymore? I feel too disillusioned by the people at church these days. I feel so far from God myself. No no no. I can’t blame the church goers. They are only a fraction of the problem. But I’d be a hipocrite to share anything with her if I myself don’t do the things I’m telling her to do.

You are as abandoned and noisy as any character in a porn film, Laura. You are Ian's plaything, responding to his touch with shrieks of orgasmic delight. No woman in the history of the world is having better sex than sex you are having with Ian... in my head.

Yeah, I still believe in god, but I think the whole church thing isn’t up to scratch. Last time I went I had little old ladies trying to kiss me, and some old guys telling me that I had been saved again. Just because I hadn’t been for six months before that. I just wanted a nice place where I could hear someone talk about their beliefs, and then I could quietly contemplate them. This was perhaps too much.

Of course I have never been asked to try and convince someone to become more of a christian.

I think I need to revitalize my faith somehow. I’ve been so lax in that aspect of my life…

I still “believe,” but a lot of people make it seem like just “believing” isn’t enough.
