WHy do some people take the easy way out?

I have known so many people who just take the easy way out... OF EVERYTHING. Has anyone ever noticed that the easy way out.... is so painful. It causes more heartache, more insecurities, more problems, more drama, more everything that is bad. When you take the easy way out.. i don't know about yall... but when i tried the easy way out..... I felt so empty inside. I never felt satisfied with anything I tried.... No guy ever made me feel better. What I did with them and THEM in general just made me feel worse. I hated the bars because being around a bunch of drunk people was obnoxious. WHEN I drank and got drunk... i felt stupid. All it did for me was give me a huge headache the next day.
The most of what I can see, this generation has chosen to take the easy way out. Relationships today... mean nothing to some people. Respect means nothing to some people... and its all because people have chosen to take the easy way out. MAn.... it makes me so mad to think there are some really great people out there who are genuine and legit, but the minute things start getting hard in life.... its over and dunzo and they quit for the easy road. How many people know that the grass aint always greener on the other side?????
All I know is that I was absolutely miserable with everything I tried. Everything I tried that didn't cost me my life or didnt cost me my social life I was doing. I tried everything that I thought would make me happy and yeah, for a little while it makes you happy... but it never ever fulfilled me. Which is why I can't understand why some people are still taking this kinda road. Guys and girls all over the place are looking the wrong places for happiness.
I just don't get what people have to lose by trying Jesus. I wish some people would stop being so flippin selfish and prideful and let go and let God. Its definately not easy.... BUT ITS SO WORTH IT. My life has changed completely and for the better. I have never been so happy. Its not about being perfect, its about being happy instead of being miserable and trying to always please everyone else. I would be lying to you if I told you it was easy. There are people who criticize and hate and dont understand. But the people who love the lord have a happiness about them that you can just see from a distance. EXAMPLE..... I went into a gas station this weekend... :) and this guy behind the counter said to me... SO many beautiful women come in here... but you are the only beautiful woman to come in here with a huge smile. Then he said "why do you smile so much?" All I could think of was... because I love jesus christ and He makes my life! HAHA He didn't know what to say after that. LOL I don't know why some people get so shocked to hear that people live for the Lord.
All I'm wondering is why????? WHY are people so quick to say no to the Lord??????

THE TRUTH IS...... some people don't know how miserable they are because they have lived the same life for so long that they are numb! THEY ARE NUMB WITH THEIR FEELINGS, THEY ARE NUMB TO JESUS CHRIST.....
I once heard someone describe their change like this... "We are like onions.... the more God peels back our layers.... the more we cry!"
Its true!!!! There are some people who don't even know how hurt they are on the inside because they have HID their feelings and their past for so long. They are just numb. The Lord started peeling my layers back and started to realize there were feelings coming out that I never knew I had, that I never wanted to experience. Then I was faced with things that I never wanted to face.
SOOOOOO please tell me why you wanna leave with these burdens for so long!??????? and WHYYYYYY in the world do you wanna do it on your own!?????
THe Lord truly makes your life miserable until you get on board with Him. You may not know how miserable you are because you are numb, but other people can see it in you.... I promise.

Our God is so amazing... that once you confess your faults and your sins... yall... He FORGETS FOREVER! He wants your love so bad because He wants to for us to have a life full of happiness and joy! He wants us to be loved like we have never been loved by any human. His love truly is so deep... it blows my mind sometimes STILL... that someone loves me so much and wants nothing but happiness for me. All it takes is a relationship... thats all he wants!
There are some people out there who hurt so bad and they try everything but Jesus. I ask you to just give this man a chance. HE IS THE ONE MAN YOU CAN COUNT ON AND WHO KEEPS A PROMISE.... and HE PROMISES NEVER TO LEAVE YOU!
