Video Rapper Lifestyle

We have all see those flashy music videos of the rappers throwing 100 dollar bills out like peppermints, with chains down to their kneecaps, and too many half-naked women to count. Many times when I watch these videos I have to wonder to myself, "What's the point?"

What's the point of having all this money every where, girls shaking what they mama should not have given them, and these ridiculously big chains that I'm pretty sure has your neck slightly suicidal? It finally dawned on me that it's all a show. At the end of the day those girls get dressed and go home, the money goes back to the bank, and the chains to a gold refinery. There is no point to this at all. It's just a show to make it seem like they are the ones with the ideal life.

I beat you're asking "What's the point of that statement?" The point is many of us are living the Video Rapper Lifestyle. We dress up and make our outside look real nice and pretty. We go about our day putting on an act trying to show everyone else how good our life is, or better yet trying to prove to ourselves how good our life is. You can make the outside the most beautiful thing in the world but that doesn't keep the inside from rotting and caving in. Your inside will continue to rot and spread poison until every cell, every thought, every breathe is infected with the poison you try to hide. The truth is when you go home and take off the jewelry, give back the money, and dismiss the video hoes the pain is still there. Until you confront the source of your troubles and give it to the person equipped to handle it, the poison will continues to spread. And once the  inside is gone and the outside has collapsed it will take more to repair what has been loss, eaten away, and torn apart than it was to give your problems to the Lord. He is the only one that can truly relieve you of your troubles. He knows all, has seen all, and loves all. There is nothing He can not do in your life! You don't need that Video Rapper Lifestyle the true beauty that lies in you is  great than any Video Rapper Lifestyle you can ever conceive. Don't be afraid to let your beauty shine!!! And remember His love for you is infinite no matter your Video Rapper Lifestyle. Read. Live. Learn. Love.
