Did you read my blog post The Bible -The Whole? – This was my blog post which cause all the discussions and debate with our friend Korky!
Given a lot of the comments Korky made during the lengthy debate with myself and a number of friends, I started to question myself:
- why am I putting myself through this, this is MY blog and I’m doing it because I want to?
- why is someone I don’t know questioning my beliefs?
- is my faith and my beliefs not showing through in what I write?
- am I sure of my reasons for blogging?
- am I blogging “for the right reason”?
- is blogging still what God wants me to do?
Lots of questions, which, for the majority of my questions were quickly and easily answered. However my doubts were soon answered as no soon had I started questioning myself when I started being inundated with messages of support and encouragement to keep blogging, from both friends and people I don’t even know! – Wow! Once again God showed me what He wants me to do through those around me – Why did I ever doubt Him!
God is always honest with us, He tells us when we’re doing a great job, and He also tells us when we’re doing things He doesn’t approve of. In other words I have a real relationship with God, in fact a better relationship with God than I have with anyone else.
So why was I questioning my beliefs when I know that…
When I’m alone – God is there. When I’m confused – He gives me direction. When I’m hurting – He holds me. When no one understands – He listens
…my answer is, I don’t know. Nothing I know or believe should have made me question my beliefs as they are grounded deep inside me.
So why am I telling you all this? Well having questioned myself, I wondered, what about you the reader, do you believe what I write? I hope so, because it is all true, I am a Christian. I love God. He is my friend and Saviour. I believe and know God is all I need in any situation, as when I’ve been at my lowest, He has held my hand and pulled me through, strengthening my relationship with him in the process.
I believe God has made a massive difference in my life. He can make a massive difference in your life too, so talk to Him today!
I’ve included the song He Is Here by Brian Doerksen. It’s one of my favourites even though it’s a very simply song, but the words are so powerful, reminding us that God is with us in all we do just waiting for us to give our all to Him:
