just confused and overwhelmed everyday - I can't keep up
I don't know how to write anymore. I am so on fire for Jesus, I love Him. And need Him. And find Him. And I am so busy in Bible Reading it is hard to take real time to write.
I don't know how to do it.
I just had a rather difficult time with old friends, in an old setting. I was deliberate in my.... sitting back. Being quiet.
I was in the presence of a bully. I knew she was there for the whole time I would be there and she was someone who had done tremendous damage when last around her; and she was odd the one or two times I visited their church.
SO.
I also was arriving hesitantly, wondering if I would actually go because of a friend getting married. And it seemed all wrong. I had conviction from the Holt Spirit.
I told her, spoke with her.
And then I found more and more lies of omission up there, with friends also wondering why so fast, what is so urgent, why even ask advice when you are "going to get married asap"? It all broke my heart and shattered my view of her.
And then before I could really write this thought.... I get distracted as another day assaults my senses.
This caught me today:
People think IMMIGRATION IS GREAT, FRIENDLY, LOVING, even CHRISTIAN. My own family says, well, they have to go somewhere.
Well, as most Christians, I would welcome ALL Legal entries. This, this is an invasion.
And thinking there will ever be assimilation, c'mon man. Really, it is just that Boulder, and Chapel Hill, and Myrtle Beach still look, still seem so....normal.
Last time I was in Myrtle Beach I saw 100+ men (only) from Ethiopia, just arrived. Ages seems to be 25-45.
THAT was a long walk.....
The Bible tells us exactly what is going to happen. That alone I would THINK would case curiosity and interest.
MY God tells us to doTwo Things:
LOVE HIM
and
LOVE one ANOTHER
MY God is invitational, avaiable to all. HE comes to us.
This church being bought out (and SOLD!!) ensures again no assimilation. No Love for America and a "better life".
VERSES TELL THE TALE
The Quran is replete with Surahs directing its followers to violence.
Some examples follow:
Surah 3:151: "We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve (all non-Muslims) …"
Surah 2:191: "And kill them (non-Muslims) wherever you find them … kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers (non-Muslims)."
Surah 9:5: "Then kill the disbelievers (non-Muslims) wherever you find them, capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush …"
MY GOD sent his only Son to come, give up his life and save the broken sinful humans. My God Loves us ALL. God loved me when I hated him, didn't know him, sinned against him.
Still, He Loves. And He came for Me.
