Heres one for your myth buster campaign...."because I am a Christian I will be able to figure things out (smartly, faster, to my advantage) because I have GOD on my side." MYTH ... BUSTED. In my newly, albeit, staggered, diaper riding walk with faith I am learning/accepting that everyday is a challenge and it is the little things that we don't see (immediate) that can and do affect our walk with Jesus. With that said as a new/renewed/wanting to be better Christian, I would be remissed not to admit that being a Christian "ain't easy". I guess that would be another myth. "I am a Christian and it is Easy"....BUSTED. Everyday is a challenge..not because it is a new day but because there is, and will always be, constant temptation/choices that, even though we think better, we submit(sp?), sometimes for the good of all Christianity and within the constraints/boundaries of our faith, but because sometimes the opposite, which then stimulates the guilt that can hinder our ability to rethink and/or revector our need/want/willingness to walk within our faith. I am commenting because I am in search of knowledge and understanding, in hopes that someday, somehow, things will get easier. It is through my faith that I know, because of my foundations (those brought to you courtesy of the Southern Babtist)and newly found faith from SCC, that through my faith, acceptance, want for my children, and myself that I can only/will make things easier by truly understanding what it means to live faithfully and have meaning in my life. I have found something anew in what I feel at SCC. I have found something that has reinvigorated my self-challenge to do better for my family, faith, and in context, what sometimes feels like a big black hole.
Thank you and Thank you....Keep on keeping on...and by that I mean feeding the minds of people like me who question, have doubts, and lack reason for the things that we do but desire to (even though we don't know what we hunger) for the love, sovereignty, acceptance, and forgiveness of Christ.
Hope: To desire something with some confidence of fulfillment. A desire supported by some confidence in its fulfillment. A ground for expectation. To look forward. Expectation. Confidence. Anticipation. "Be joyful in hope..." Romans 12:12 "I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit." Romans 15:13 "..my hope is in you all day long." Psalm 25:5b
