It’s been quite a while since I posted. Life is going very good, thanks to my growing and increasing relationship with not just God and the Holy Spirit, but this mysterious person called Christ.
I’m convinced of His Divinity and Validity. My pastor lent me a copy of “More Than A Carpenter”
and it’s got some great logic in it, that I didn’t know. If there is a refutation or lay/atheist response to this, I’d love to read that too, so pass it along to me.
I’d like to move on to getting to know Christ better – in the sense of feeling His presence. I’m so backwards – I feel God first, then His Spirit and THEN Christ. Well, I haven’t actually felt Jesus the way writers from Josh McDowell to Anne Lamott do, but I’d like to. And I’d like to have the faith of a child, like in that Jars of Clay song. Haven’t felt anything like that since I was 12, but a girl can hope can’t she?
We are moving most likely next month, and I feel that for a while at least, we will be commuting to our current church. But given my still-liberal attitudes – like not taking the Bible literally – I still feel I need to find a community of believers more like myself. I hate this “outsider/outcast” feeling – and I’ve had it my whole life. I’d like to belong just once.
Wouldn’t that be nice?
