So one time I was at my dad’s church with him and actually wrote some notes down, as I scrolled through my ‘notes’ thingy on the iphone I came across them. This is what they read:
Journey of Faith
- We don’t know how hard they tried ‘not to sin’
- We don’t know what powers assailed them ‘to sin’
- We don’t know what we would have done in that situation
- Never presume to straighten others out
- Judge with careful, gentle precision.
As I read through these notes I thought to myself wow, now there’s some good advise. I’m not going to get into my ‘issues’ with the church or religion but I think everyone can take into consideration those phrases above (the last three in particular).
And also on a related topic: I walked outside about a half hour ago to help a friend with his vehicle and I felt WARMTH! Real, actual, warmth, from the sun. It was glorious! It reminds me how much I miss summer and I wonder to myself: how much longer will I last here?
