So tonight I am sitting at a local Starbucks waiting on one of my daughters to finish a Photography class! (She is getting really good by the way!)
But I have been in this store for a little over an hour and heard at least four conversations regarding God. Ok... I am trying not to be judgmental... truly I am... but folks are really confused and are being led astray! I'm not talking simple little "issues" that are different from denomination to denomination... I'm talking basic BIBLICAL accountability and such. Wow... you would have thought God was really this "mystic" being... a "fairy" that hangs out in our "earth"... well that was at least one explanation! Wow!
Father God... please, help me to hold fast to YOUR WORD and none other. Please let me know YOU so completely and intimately through your WORD and my time with you that I am not led astray or compromised by others "opinions". I know that there is ONE GOD, and ONE WAY... only through Your Son JESUS CHRIST and His shedding of blood for me! Help me when I read books, hear messages, etc.. that I not become a christian with a knowledge of catchy phrases and quotes... but of YOUR WORDS.
Ok, that's my "soap box" for tonight! Blessings to you all!
I'm totally with you. When we start using our reason and logic to understand God, it gets off course really quickly. The Word is the only way to keep it right. Thanks for sharing!
