Michael Jackson for the Love of Christ!

I couldve watched it Live online but decided to be different than everyone else. 

I've heard everyone and their pastor talk about it online via social networks so it kind of ruined it for me.  

With everyone so jazzed up about MJ it kinda killed my feelings and impression for/of him. No one cared when he released his last CD. No one has cared what his life was like the past 7 years. The only ppl that cared were ppl going to see him on tour soon. 

But now that he no longer exists ppl want to jump back on the wagon and share with the world how close to Michael they were or how connected to his music they were or how his music has affected them. Fine.  

But where the hell have these ppl been? They weren't telling us a single thing about MJ within the last decade. They just came out of no where. It posses me off big time. 

Not to compare the king of pop with the king of kings because that's blasphemy, but in some ways this is how it was with Jesus. 

They crucified this man. They never believed him. They didn't listen to him. They never followed him. They might have never even seen him in person. But now that he is dead, EVERYONE wants to be connected to him somehow. Not because of what he did. If it was for what he did it wouldve been clear you were with him back when he was touring. The truth is, they only mention his name because he is FAMOUS. Everyone has heard of him. Now everybody wants a piece of his light so they can seem brighter. Well it doesn't work that way. 

You cannot be known for knowing a famous person. It's so disappointing how this world reacts. I just pray that one day we will all unite like this for the love of Christ!

It's a mad world.  We live in a stark raving, sick sad little world.
