The commandments

I am holding off on my commandments blogs for  awhile. Two Pastors, mine and a former Pastor have both preached sermons since the first of the year on the Ten Commandments. I want to go back through and look at the commandments again but I think I will wait until one of the Pastors gets through his series. I learn so much from them. I try to feed myself from them as well as read on my own. I have already learned much but my words are few compared to theirs. I  haven't felt like blogging much recently. I am sick, and trying to get better. I have a surgery coming up at the end of the month. First big surgery of my life. I request your prayers. This blog is not on subject, probably more rambling than anything. I have walked this Christian way a long time and I still learn things. Some times it may be a new slant on things like the Third Commandment. It made me think a lot. Perhaps some of  the other commandments will shed new light as I look at them. I am not concerned with understanding something better it is strange and new doctrines that trouble me. I have one person that I just quit following because he seems to always have a new slant on everything. That is different than just understanding something clearer than before. I don't need to look smart or sound intelligent, I just hope my musings can help someone else in their relationship with God. God only needed Ten Commandments to guide us in how to live.  Most laws created today, would not be needed if we would follow the ten commandments. I believe God has the answers for life, in his word and I continue to  read and try to understand the Bible better. I believe so many troubles in this world can be solved with the Bible. If we would try to live by God's rules. I believe my life has been blessed as I have tried. So often I see people go through hardship and I wish they knew my God.  I have not lived a perfect life, it was when I thought I had to be perfect, because I thought that is what Christians did was live a perfect life, that I was most miserable. I can't live a perfect life , I just do the best I can. I am happy with that, and I hope I allow God to keep working in me, little by little. If God accepts me as I am, which he does, and I allow him to fix me. I believe I am OK. The mistakes of the past are behind me. Removed far from me. God has been good to me, and if I could do it over I think I would like to try and trust God right from the start. I am learning and still sometimes forget to take everything to God in prayer. God has been so good to me. Try him and see, if it will not be the same for you.  God bless, LVZ.
