Red Cups?

Enough with the Starbucks red cups. I don't care two cents about a cup. Neither should any of you. What is wrong with America? Honestly, it's no wonder other countries want to take us out. These are first world problems????? Meanwhile there are third world countries somehow STILL without clean water in a world that collectively has billions of dollars that could do something about that REAL WORLD PROBLEM. Get over yourself. I don't even drink Starbucks. And they have NEVER been associated with Jesus Christ and I highly doubt he even takes notice. And for that matter although we celebrate Christ's birth on the 25th of December, he more than likely was born in March sometime. Christmas is not about a cup. It's remembrance of someone who devoted the better part of His life to healing the sick, helping the needy, and loving the world. The national news waves some red cups in your face, then tells you (24 hours a day) that it's a big deal and suddenly you are too distracted to care about the things that matter. ISIS is still beheading Christians all over the place. There are still children in slavery and sex trafficking. There are still endangered animals being gunned down in a cage for decoration. Still people dying of starvation everywhere. These are things that matter. Not a damn cup. (Excuse my language) but honestly. What on earth would compel you to care that much about a coffee cup from a company who does little to nothing charity wise, unless it involves a PR opportunity, to change the world for the better, and a company that isn't even remotely Christ-like. What kind of Christian would even bat an eyelash about something as trivial as a cup of coffee? This is why I say "Don't look for confirmation of Christ's character in Christians. You won't find it there. We are just people. But God is God. If you want to know Him, invite Him into a relationship with you. Ask Him who He is. And He will reveal His character to you." Go do something that matters with your life. Be the change. Help those who need it most. Stop caring about things that don't matter at all or dwelling on the negative of life. And that's my two cents. Thanks.
