"I can hold my breath
I can bite my tongue
I can stay awake for days
If that's what you want
Be your number one
I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part
If that's what you ask
Give you all I am
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
I'm only human, yeah"
-Human--Christina Perri

Ecclesiastes 7:20
20 Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous,
no one who does what is right and never sins.
Romans 3:23
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
These verses basically say that nobody is perfect. Not Christina Perri, not Justin Bieber, not even Barack Obama.
Christ died on the cross all those millennia ago to save us from our sins.
That didn't make them all go away though. If anything, matters got worse because the world is constantly moving away from God.
Everyone has sinned, whether it be telling a little white lie, or even bullying your siblings.
I am definitely not perfect but one thing I live by is WWJD?
It sounds silly but it really helps. It makes me stop and think.
WWJD?
What Would Jesus Do?
If Jesus wouldn't do it, why am I more worthy than Jesus that I should?
I also try to practice what I preach. And everyone should.
Not physically "preach" like kind of what I'm doing now, but even the way you live.
Treat others as you want to be treated.
Live how you would expect God wants you to. Or behave how you would teach your children to.
These things will help you everyday to just stop and think before you act.
This is extremely important because... "The wages of sin is DEATH."
