About Us

  So what is a human being, in other words, what does it mean to be human? What trait is common amongst us all, no matter where we live on the globe? What common thread unites us?
  People are more then their culture, and more even then their families. It is what we are in search of that unites us. What is it that is common to all of mankind? Obviously, people are as individual as are pieces of sand on a beach, and yet there is this common thread?
  What is common to us all, is that we have all lived, either currently, as with you now reading this, or in the future for those who will read it then, or from a past where these words had not yet been written. All have lived, at their time, and within their allotted hour. All who have, or will ever walk this earth, entered it as intelligent beings, some more then others. But all have thoughts, private thoughts, that some would make public. It is those private thoughts that we look to explore here.
  If you were to ask anybody, and yes, even those evil terrorists, what kind of people they are, that is to say, do they see themselves as being good and not evil? To a person, each would say about themselves, that they are good. Now this logic, these thoughts about ourselves, although common to all people, fly in the face of what Holy God sees us as. But here's the thing, Even though most would say something like, Hey, I never killed or raped anyone, yeah, I think I'm a pretty good person. Here's the other point of view. He sees your best attempts at being more good then not, as dirty rags, and he isn't talking about dirty oil rags.
  Because you see, who else is he going to compare your best to, if not to himself? And because he is pure and without any fault, compared to him, we are only filthy rags. That is not to say that we don't have the capacity to do good things, we do. But let me ask you something, If you had a million dollars to give to your favorite charity, and did, you would feel pretty good about yourself wouldn't you? Of course you would, it is only natural. But here's the deeper question, Why did you do it? Just to help them out, and for no other reason, or because of two things? One, you could afford to do it, and two, because it makes you feel good about you? You see, that's it, isn't it? It's all about us!
