Who is God? (Why does it matter?)
It has become abundantly clear to me that I have lost focus. God has become fuzzy in my brain and in my heart.
Dad, forgive me. I clearly do not understand what it means to have a Daddy-God. I forget how you created all the things I see, the planets, the sun, the people around me with your awesome creative hand. I've been distracted on a day-to-day basis from remembering the one who has paid my ransom in blood. My eyes have ceased to look forward towards the day where Jesus will come back again and take us all Home. The Lord and Master of my life often seems to be myself. My inner sanctum of my heart, the temple of worship has become cluttered with all these useless idols and worthless altars. Come in and clean out the temple again. Throw out those things which are unworthy of worship. Clear my vision again. Help me to see clearly. Come in and be Lord. Mend the broken things in me, fix the twisted things, don't leave me as I am. May your will be done in my life. In Jesus name, Amen.=====

hmmm ok here goes :)
1. It's an interesting theological debate. And I wonder what exactly is "endorsement" anyways? Can you allow without endorsing? I tend to think "yes."
2. Wow! that was SO interesting and artistic! I was frightened but very impressed and intrigued. Wish I knew which sin each one represented.
3. things that make you go hmmmm :)
4. I can totally see that - Amen!!! :p
5. Very useful article :). muahaha. Don't worry - not you :)
6. Still a little scary and the potential for abuse is huge. But if done right, it would be very beneficial.
Sometimes... I think God is most clear when he's the most fuzziest to us. When the wind came through and spoke to Elijah, I'm sure his vision was hindered. When the burning bush spoke to Moses, the smoke likely burned his eyes...
@cadency - hmm... a walk by faith and not by sight reference?
@ha256 - Narrow is the path that leads to life...
Thanks for the scripture.
It's ironic... how when you think you've found a way, you find out that you've really only found a step.
