Shining Light...

It's been really weird since I settled in my new town, which is quite bizarre how someone like me would end up in. Prior to gaining faith and the Holy Spirit I was completely insensitive to what spiritual darkness and oppression resides in this area in general, but like my eyes were opened, suddenly I am no longer blind. In fact the oppression of the people around me and all their issues was bad enough that I was unable to sleep!(Noise, Chain smoking fumes setting off my smoke alarm and sending my lymph nodes into swollen fits etc)

...So definitely a lot of people with problems...one day last week or the week before I finally hit the hissy fit internally and got the kick up the butt to action...no longer could I be the lazy, passive non confrontational uncaring random stranger bystander...these people's icky vibes were starting to get on my nerves!!! Sometimes people get into this stagnant state where they are so deep buried in their own sh*t in a pit so deep and wide that they are helpless to help themselves and can't see past the fuzz of all the muck until someone drags them kicking and screaming out!

So this morning I started spreading the *Light* in a more concrete way to "clean up" and "lift" the general "dirty" "heavy" feeling of the area. In stark contrast to my apathetic keep to myself nature I started doing mailbox drops, like an activist LOL!!! Pamphlets along the lines of THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE...JESUS IS YOUR ANSWER! lol

Non believers can scoff and snigger all they want, but when the sh*t hits the fan...where does everyone else go? What can everyone else do? NADA. There are so many problems in this world and people suffering afflictions that their greatest self sufficiency, ability or those of their loved ones, the greatest doctors, scientists, thinkers, philanthropists in the world have NO answer for! It is at that point when you have reached the end of the road that you can find the answer. So that's basically the message I wanted to share...that there is *Hope* and one who is greater than all and capable of all^^...God Bless :)

A Born Again...

Someone asked me what kind of Christian am I? I never understood why people seem to be so obsessed about denominations...so anyway in order to answer the question I had to look up what the terms meant...I found out I'm a BORN AGAIN, lol. I included the link cos I thought it was a good explanation.

So anyway the other thing I noticed is hailing from an all girls school I used to think I was "not your average girl"...now I"m starting to think I'm "not the average person"...not sure why people in general are so interested in other people's business and gossiping etc...I like to talk about IDEAS but I noticed most people just like to talk about other people....I don't get it, what could be more boring?? lol! Maybe it's cos of my INTJ-ness and lack of social bone in my body, loner disposition and lack of connection to most human beings...if I think about it with my own logical rational mind, the fact I am so disinterested is kinda disturbing....am I actually an alien? LOL

Recently I had quite a few long lost associates assume my drastic change of lifestyle must come with a guy that finally appeals to me enough that I have shacked up with them....

UM??!!

Which brings me to the fact that God is so cool and so REAL and so wholely fulfilling. I think the secret behind all the huge changes..well unbelievers just never get it!!! Which I think is a huge disadvantage to be one cos the one thing I seem to notice is they seem to think they need other people to fill the voids in their life...the answer for all holes that need patching is right there for the taking...the answer is God :)

What Constitutes a REAL Christian anyway?

This is the big thought niggling me lately. I look around at people that call themselves Christians, people that attend church...they often don't always meet what I think constitutes a Christian. Most modern Christians I think are "pick and choose" Christians. Most fallen Christians are people that believe if God is omnipotent why did he let them suffer? Therefore he must not exist or he doesn't care about me so I don't care for him is what I often hear. I am so tired of these people who blame all their misfortunes on God without realising that suffering is an inherent part of human existence. Partly though I can't understand how people have such a shallow understanding of God...or maybe it is because Knowing God requires having a real relationship and not just being sent to Sunday school?

The Norwegian terrorist is identified as "Christian" but how can acts of murder be called Christian?

There is so much hypocrisy. Then all the factionism. No wonder there is so much disillusionment with Christianity these days. I understand why if you say you are a Christian alot of the time people's eyes narrow and look at you distrustfully. I think in this modern world...alot of people are messed up and Christians aren't immune.

It IS nice though those very rare few times you meet REAL Christians...I don't know if it's something that can necessarily be "defined" in these modern ages though...it's rather more perhaps like an energy that people radiate...that of the Holy Spirit...but then apparently not every Christian has the Holy Spirit permanently indwelling in them either...does that make them not a real Christian? I don't know...it's all very confusing.

I happened across a passage in the bible describing the end times...it mentioned "famine and earthquakes"...seems like we're in the midst of them then...
