How does the soul resemble Light?
Light feeds on light.
In the day time outdoor light is always brighter than indoor light.
At night we turn on more lights to see our way.
God seems to be the same in a lot of ways. We need to let God into All parts of our lives. We tend, or I tend to let God into only the parts of my life that I need help with at the moment.
Right now I'm letting God into the part of my life that involves work and getting a job. But I've noticed I'm not letting him into my social or love life or my relationship with my brother Fred.
Why not? I have a need of friends in this new town. It would be nice to have a girl friend or just more friends outside of the family and what not as well. After all, in bodies we are designed to be social critters.
I am told "I can do All things through Christ who strengthens me." I've seen his power and will in action many times. So why not give it All over to Him?
I've also noticed that I tend to go to God when things are hard for me. But, when things start going my way...I want to grab back the reins of the wagon. It goes off course and then I'm back to asking Him for help.
Geez, how dumb am I? Seems I still need some heavy duty training to work my way up to being an idiot. Then maybe I can graduate to the status of moron.
I take great comfort from the fact that the whole lot of you other folks in bodies deal with the same sort of thoughts.
In this again even though it doesn’t sound like it on the surface of the thought. God comforts me with it.
Misery loves company maybe? Or is that my ego/body talking? Hard to tell at times. Which is the thought of God? And which is the thought of the world?
God’s thought would be a loving one. So thinking I want you in this same quandary is a thought of the world I think.
The Lord would not have me bring my brother to a darker place when they already have more than enough to deal with.
Ok, enough. I’m done for now.
Just my thoughts.
John.
