Lord, I pray that whatever bad came out of this that you would find a way to glorify yourself in it.

About Me
- brown swallow girl
- "We both love strawberries and ships and collies and poems and all beauty, and all those things bind us together. Those sharings just happened to be; but what we must do now is share everything. Everything! If one of us likes anything, there must be something to like in it- and the other one must find it. Every single thing that either of us likes. That way we shall create a thousand strands, great and small, that will link us together. Then we shall be so close that it would be impossible- unthinkable for either of us to suppose that we could ever recreate such closeness with anyone else. And our trust in each other will not only be based on love and loyalty but on the fact of a thousand sharings- a thousand strands twisted into something unbreakable."
I'm learning that Jesus means for me to see this about Him and I.

i think that regardless of the imperfections of the NT it totally proclaims truths about the Jesus that i know and love and who has saved me

i think that regardless of the imperfections of the church it has brought me closer to my God and to his people (aka everyone)
SO: i don't saying that those things are imperfect means anything. of course they're imperfect because they're both developed by humans. the truth is that in their imperfection God has used them to bring me closer to him, just like he uses me in MY imperfection to reach others.
if the church and the bible have taught him nothing about Christ and have not helped him love Jesus & people more then i guess there's no reason for him to subscribe to either... but if they HAVE then perhaps he should consider them in their imperfections as Christ considers him in his.
ADDITIONALLY... while i think that asking questions and challenging things in the bible and church is great and necessary... UNLESS it is with the purpose of loving and knowing God and people more... what's the point.
