If it makes you happy ...

"If it makes you happy how can it be bad?"
That is a line from a song whose name escapes me. I feel like this might be the general attitude of most unbelievers. I think unbelievers feel that accepting Christian beliefs means all fun leaves the room. I suppose it depends on what you think is fun. God doesn't force you to stop doing the things you are doing, you do that yourself as the Holy Spirit begins to open your eyes to what is truly valuable and worth you spending your time on. You can live as you choose, but never forget that  consequences follow each and every choice we make in life. Christians have no business telling anyone what they should be doing or not doing with their life. Our job as believers in Christ is to show people Christ thru our lives. Live it instead of talk about it. Show them the love of God. He will show those outside the faith what will really make them happy. We have to allow the non-believers the right to exercise their free will. God gave us all a free will so when people surrender their lives to Christ they do it willingly and not because they feel they must. Many things we think are fun end up not being very good for us at all. If you don't yet know Christ in a personal way, why? If you do, BE Christ to those you encounter each day. The how to regarding that task is found by reading the Bible a little each day. God loves you and only has blessings and not cursings in store for you.
