Thoughts for July 20, 2013
No Blogs posted since last September. Has any one out there been trying to follow? Much has been happening that distracted me. Our Church "Dillon Community Church" in Dillon, Colorado had their senior pastor Brian Myers resign a year ago last April. So, for about a year much has been done to find a new pastor. And, it has distracted my attention from other parts of life. God has a way with that for many of us. Some of my immediate family and I have been reading the Bible through from beginning to end. Actually, not quite that way. We are using the Tyndale one year Bible. There are daily selections of OT, NT, Psalms and Proverbs to read. The Psalms are read through twice in one year. I have tried to post comments after completing the daily reading. Mostly everyday. Some times I miss. I highly recommend the endeavor for your family if you are inclined.
Some of my thoughts are pretty weird. For example, followers of Christ often refer to themselves as believers. Then they are likely to call others non-believers. Make Sense? Well not really. Because the true believer is not to judge others. Words from Jesus. So, ergo, how do they know who is a believer and who is not? Also, since we are told in the Bible that no one is righteous, not one, what would be the difference between a believer and a non-believer? Faith and faith alone. Certainly not righteousness.
Do you want to think about "leadership"? Or, maybe the World View vs the Christian View? Let me know I really like to discuss life. How about abortion or homosexuality? How about weapons?
Today we(my family and I) read the Proverb !9:21 You can make many plans, but the Lord's purposes will prevail.
So, why plan? I believe there is good reason for planning. What do you think they are?
