Some things just hit you like a ton of bricks.
This can be things that you have known and thought of for some time. things you may know and understand but not comprehend at one time. those are the moments I am talking about.
I just had one of those moments.
Background:
I was sitting reading different blogs and listening to a few sermons on line. I signed up on a blog that if I had a minute or 2 I could write there or share something I had thought of.
I enjoy profiles being filled out and simi-complete that it will at least point to my other works and people can find this main site. well in signing up I found they use the same software I do WordPress. So filling out this profile they have some different boxes than standard. and one asked my Ministry.
I thought on this for 1-2 seconds and had my ah ha moment. I have a ministry and it is not just a thing here or there it is People Reducing Homelessness(PRH).
What Do I DO There? I write on the blog as well as a few other things. but this really becomes bigger when you let the idea marinate just a little longer. it speaks of how we are to serve as a christian. Serving by loving others as yourself, loving by doing, and the like.
but what is an epiphany without action? it is dead.
So what is my charge from this I ask myself. I need to go and move forward on the things that need doing over there as well as here and in the world.
I for a while have been praying for God to reveal what I am to do. Lo in behold I have had it for some time just not as active as I should be with it. So taking this charge I run.
here is the main PRH site
There have been many times that my world point of view has been Jaded and way off the mark. I know my view has grown and in the past I have published things that started controversy. I feel that they show where I was as this does. I hope that they are taken in context and events can be explained as needed in the future.
Why am I writing this now?
Here in Florida there is a Church that was going to be burning the Qur’an. I see how this may effect the world religious realm. As well as how it can change the situation for our soldiers in the middle east.
Now at the time of editing and writing the original burning has been cancelled but others have taken up the charge.
In no way do I support these people but I will support the 1st amendment on freedom of speech. Even with freedom of speech we need to police ourselves. Not so we don’t offend but to know we are truly doing or saying the right thing when needed.
I feel this act could fully set off a bigger religious war than is now and that would not soon be over.We would see more death of American troops as well as more christian missionaries torchered over seas. That is what I do not want to see happen.
On the other hand
As crazy as an act of burning another persons holy book is I look to the future of being hated as a Christian. This would fulfill the prophesy of being hated for the name sake of Christ. But we still don’t know when His return will be.
I digress there is enough out there on the Qur’an burning Church.
The main point I was stating before the rabbit trail is this. As I get older I mature and I see things in a different light. Growing mentally we are better able to express what we feel about our geopolitical environment.
I want to know is there anything you have said or written in the past that now shows how little you truly knew about something?
