So what is this going to be? A little bit of everything I think. Maybe that's it. What I'm thinking. What I'm believing. I hope what I'm knowing. And why would anyone care what I think I know? There's no reason in the world that you should. But then why are you here? Cuz you have to be somewhere I suppose. I've never been here before. I may not be back. I might get too busy to care; time is short. That's fine. Nobody can deal with it all at once. There is a lot to deal with.

About Me

Name:
Location: The Great Plains, United States

I try not to take myself too seriously, but I know I have far too much. So I'm trying to learn how to laugh again, as I had forgotted for a while there. Also I'm relearning to enjoy life; you know, like when we were kids. The biggest challenge ahead is learning how to love God with all my heart, and soul, and mind, and strength. This one is not really that hard when you know the truth. But along with it comes learning to love others as I love myself, and that one is, as they say, "a horse of a whole different color." I think I need to learn to love myself a little more, but the problem may be that I know all these facts about me. Sometimes the facts are simply wrong or they are just stuck in the past. I'm trying to get my facts to line up with the truth. As someone once asked a great man, "what is truth?" If he had only known.

Darkness & Freedom



Free choice lies at God's essence, for He alone is a truly free agent. From His essence, He breathes into Man's nostrils and Man too becomes free to choose his destiny. And in that choice lies the Essence. The darkness, the confusion, the possibility of evil then has a purpose of its own--and that is to be the stage to Man's free choice, to allow God's essence to enter. And if a person would choose evil? Would God's essence then be revealed? No. For in evil alone there is no light, and without light nothing is revealed. Only when the choice is to do good, then light comes and reveals the essential truth of the darkness.
