what to write about

Some days it seems easy, lately it hasn't been easy. I started taking a Sunday School class about how to study the Bible. Context is so important. When I talk or write I want to be biblical, and interpret correctly. It is really not that easy. Just look at how many denominations there are. We disagree on little things and sometimes big things. We each have to work out our own salvation. I think about how I was raised and how at one time I thought I was pretty smart. I don't feel that way any more. I want to be fruitful and help others in their relationship with God or find a relationship with God. Many times I still want to find a scripture that agrees with what I am already thinking. Some times that may be ok, but if your thinking is wrong to start with, how will you correct it? I have changed my thinking on so many things over the years, I don't like to come off as I know it all, but perhaps I have experience that can be a help to others. I have been on this road a long time. I believe it was because of the relationship I have with God that a lot of my thinking changed. God is able to work with us if we are pliable in his hands. He is interested in our hearts. If we have a heart towards God, wanting to please him, I think we'll be OK. We must be sincere in our hearts toward God. He needs to be Lord and Savior. It is OK to believe in him, but are we willing to make corrections as he guides us? I have been thinking about that sermon I heard of Bill Wolfson "Direction not intention determines destination. The picture below happened accidentally. Wish I knew what key I pushed to get it to show up. If I wanted to find that place again, I know it was in Wyoming. A short distance off the interstate. Looking at a map and remembering where I was I could probably find my way there. Looking at the Bible I can find my way to where I want to be in eternity. Direction determines destination. If I want to get there, intention is not enough, I have to go northwest towards Wyoming to get to this place again, from where I am currently at. I would need to study a map and eventually I would find it. I would probably make a few wrong turns here and there but eventually I would find it.  So it is with eternity, intention is not enough, I need to go the right direction and I will get there from where I am currently at. God's word is the road map I need for that destination. I have made a few wrong turns on that journey but as long as I am willing to make corrections, I will get to an eternal destination I will want.    God bless LVZ.  determines destiny."  I think that is so true. I can think back today that not all that many years ago I still was making corrections in my thinking. Truth be told, I still am today.  I see times in the past where I got off track and thought I was doing good. If I could just learn to truly trust God in all situations, I would be better off. I remember one time in particular when I was going through a hard time, and it hit me like a ton of bricks about how self righteous I was. I would never have seen it if it hadn't been for that difficulty. If I could give one bit of advise to anyone it would be to develop a relationship with God. It doesn't matter where you are, but if you could get on that path going the right direction with God helping you, the destination with be worth it all.  I don't believe anyone would regret a decision to Follow God. God has our best interest at heart at all times.
