Walking around in circles......

Have you ever had those days where you weren't really sure what was going on, three or four things that would set the day were not set so everything was kind of on hold? Well,

I am having a few months of those days and well to be honest, I am not really "settled" about it!
The song Hanging in a Moment, by Lifehouse (see the "MOMENTS" post) really says it all. I am not moving until I am sure! He will move me, until then I am Hanging and wondering..?????

Before I go on...

I know I am not a teapot and this is not a venting session.
I am praying about it! and I do know God is in control and I am okay with that (mostly)

I am waiting and I have friends praying for direction, discernment, WISDOM and PATIENCE to come to me Next DAY AIR!!! but, in the mean time I am just wondering...

"why is all the biblical stuff so complicated now and so much doctrinal differences that talking about the bible is all open to interpretation" (Scarry!!!) "Law, Grace, Love, Commandment, Living are all very different ideals among the different doctrines and donominations. In the olden days, when I was small the BIBLE was the BOOK of Answers and brought us closer to God because He (Christ) was the Word and the Word was with Him (GOD) John 1:1. The Bible was the road map, the encouragement, the rules of the games people play, the role model, the fairy tales that we were to focus on to keep our minds right and on the eternal thoughts. Why has this changed? Now most people quote some theologian or author's book about the bible instead of actually quoting the scriptures. So many interpretations, so many views, so many misinterpretations and so much confusion.

Are we no longer ONE body moving in ONE direction and following ONE GOD (JESUS CHRIST!) ? does everyone else really KNOW what they are "called to do" "and are they doing what they are called to do" ,"are all these ministries and projects for eternal goals" "are we really Loving like Jesus, with all these people I am running into that are so beaten, angry, defeated and orphaned"?.

Is it really cheap grace to show someone that they can soak all their wounds, all their sacrafices, all their failures, all their fears, all their .... in the blood of Jesus and Walk across the great void they see in the "World" to cross over to ertnal life (John 3:16), use the Cross which they believe Jesus Christ died on by order of GOD the Father to atone of all the sins of the world past, present and future, and that his raising and ascending to the Father is the hope that one day we will too. The cross is our pathway, it is the "yoke" that Christ uses to share the burden with us. The Bible says, Salvation comes by grace, and Faith by believing.

So... if you believe in Jesus Christ and have faith, hope and joy through Him, should most of your thoughts, ambitions, plans, dreams be toward bring others into the knowledge of Him, and helping those that had this knowledge rekindle it once the burdens shifted and they stumbled under the weight, or dropped their yoke and ventured off the path.

Christ layed down his LIFE for us, shouldn't we lay down ourselves, our .... to do "the work of the Father" ? Shouldn't it break our hearts to see a brother or sister in the desert, wandering or running away from GOD? Shouldn't we call out to our brother or sister and show them the love and concern?

Should of, Could have, Would have..... too late! We are loosing the opportunities.. People are passing away.. We don't always get a second chance.. and we never know which word opens the calloused and bruised heart and reminds them to look up and see Jesus, once they open their heart Christ can take it from there. All they have to do is CALL UPON THE NAME OF JESUS!

And if we are not working in the spirit (Holy not ours) we can say the wrong thing and close off the heart and ears and seal that person in the bitterness. Oh be careful what you say! Pray for the Spirit to lead, guide and prepare the heart for the right words to touch it.
