For those of you who know me, you may know that I am strong in my faith. Because of this, I enjoy Christian music, and just like with any other genre of music, I have my favorite artists and bands. In order to keep my mind on good, encouraging and Christ-centered things, I follow some of my favorite artists and bands on social media.

My favorite Christian band, Tenth Avenue North, has had a massive impact on my life. I follow the band on Twitter, as well as each member individually, and their tweets often teach me new things and challenge me to think differently. Whether you're a Christian or not, it is obvious that they are extremely smart men and have a lot of knowledge to share with the world.

The other day after the shooting in Munich, Mike, the lead singer of the band, tweeted:

Soon after, he received many responses such as the following:

This is a human trying to express his sorrow for what is happening in our world in the way that he knows and that he is comfortable with. And here are these random people putting him down through a screen. This isn't the point of the article, but it's extremely hard for me to understand how and why grown ups like these are being perfect examples to today's youth as to how to be a cyber bully and just accept it, when that's one of the main things we try to teach our kids not to do.

Anyway, these responses are saying that religion is the problem. I partially agree, because some religions have caused major issues in our world lately. But to me, those responses are where I see the problem. We are all learning, especially currently, that if a person who is of one religion or ethnicity performed an act of terror it doesn't mean all the people of that religion or ethnicity are terrorists. Respectably so, just as one religion is based on negative things doesn't mean all religions are based on negative things. Last time I checked, Christianity isn't based off violence. So why are people who are a powerful voice for the Christian faith, like Mike, being attacked for expressing his sorrow in the way that he knows how?

The other day, I was daydreaming a bit. I had a picture in my mind where all the people in our world believed in something good: some sort of religion or passion that was based on goodness, happiness, loving others, etc. Everyone believed in something positive and made it the center purpose of their lives. What a perfect world, right? It would be a world where everyone had faith in something positive, therefore making our world more positive.

Now I'm not trying to tell everyone that they should believe in God as their "something positive." Don't get me wrong, I would love for that to happen, but that's not how faith works, or how life works, to be honest. But if everyone in the world believed in something good, I imagine such good things happening. What's the harm in trying it out?

I think a lot of people turn away from any type of faith before they try it, because if they can't see it, they won't believe it. I understand that, I do. It's hard to believe things when visual evidence isn't always present, but that's what's so incredible about it. It's a mystery that is being revealed little by little, and it's up to us to let the world hear about it.

For the sake of the world's future, try to believe in something good and real. You won't be let down.
