God

to live

Submitted by Aisling on Sun, 10/05/2008 - 20:34

To live is not just to exist.
It's so much more in-depth than that, so much more daring, so much more dangerous.
To live is to take a risk, a great and holy risk. And what do we risk?
Our lives.

God is Real vs. God isn't Real

Submitted by Velocity on Fri, 09/19/2008 - 14:23


World View Argument
(I have researched many views and opinions on athiesm and such, so these are pretty true views.)

Personally I BELIEVE IN GOD HE'S MY SAVIOUR!

God isn’t real
God is real

God Isn’t Real- (An athiest's perspective)
I do not believe in things I cannot either, touch, feel or hear.

I believe that if there is or was a real ‘god’, that He wouldn’t let such terrible things happen in the world, if god is real why doesn’t he just come down and show himself to us?

God Alone

Through mist and haze
Through fog and storm
Through raging sea
Through whistling air
Through night and day
Through dawn and dusk
Through fiery sunset
Through tumbling falls
Through sun and sand
Through rock and hill
Through falling rain
Through pouring hail
Through moon and stars
Through silver and gold
Through falling snow
Through glistening fields
Through tree and wood
Through grass and dew
Through flaming mountain
Through rolling clouds
Through brook and stream

Musings on Past Sunday School Experiences and What I Got Out of It All

Submitted by Kenzie on Wed, 06/25/2008 - 06:06

I want to totally and completely take over a Sunday School class at our church. I recently looked back on my Church experiences and found that I couldn’t remember anything about being in class expect that I hated it, was bored and was sick of the same thing over and over again.

What?

That’s awful! I should look back on my learning experiences as being fortifying and interesting, fun yet reverent!

I realized that I had gained nothing but resentment for studying the Bible from my Sunday School classes.

Hearts

I've been reading about hearts, our hearts. Like how deceitful they can be. I found very many interesting passages on our hearts, too.

I never knew

Submitted by Aisling on Wed, 04/23/2008 - 00:23

I never knew You
until I knew You wanted me
until I knew You were fighting for me
I never knew You were running after me
pushing through the clutter, arms stretched out trying to reach me
I never knew You hadn’t taken a moment’s rest
since that first moment
I catch the noise at last
turn and see You lunging through the crowd
of my other loves
Your hands and feet cut and bleeding
I never realized you were shouting out loud
shouting my name
I hear what others aren’t saying about me

God

Socretes once asked "Are the gods good because they are gods? Or, are the gods good because they are good?"

If you then take that question and apply to any Omniscient, Omnipotent... "God", you get quite an interesting topic for discussion.

Is what god says good because he is god? or is what god says good because he is good? If you take the first question, if what god says is good because he is god, then he can therefore change his mind, he could turn around and say "thou shalt murder thy mother and thy father" but is that good? Well it must be if god says it is.

Infinite

Submitted by James on Sun, 03/09/2008 - 05:34

This world began, one day, far back
In time so long ago, forgotten;
Yet, you have writ it in your book:
How even time’s from you begotten!

Will I ever understand
How you could be before it all?
For I am just a mortal man,
My intellect is weak and small.

How can you ever do an act,
When there’s no time to do it in?
A deed must be begun in fact,
And done, and finished, to fit in.

Change

Depression… You know, what everyone goes through.

Worries… What everyone does…

Sadness…” I cared for you… I did…”

Helplessness… “What am I supposed to do now?”

The pain… “God if your there then why does this happen?”

The truth… God’s response… “Learn through your mistakes” “Take heed to my word” “I love you… forever…”

Life… God’s never changing His mind about loving you… I hope you will change about not loving Him...

Change… Get your life right…

Us… We all need too

Sometimes

Submitted by Bernadette on Wed, 02/20/2008 - 02:32

Sometimes I just want to cry
Sometimes I just want to shout
Oh Lord rain down your mercy
Upon this earth that is dry
Oh Lord rain down your mercy
Pour down the rain of mercy
Let your mercy flood the earth
Let the waves of grace come upon the shore
Let the clouds of the heavens cover the sky
Let the raindrops of love pour down on the wilting grass
