I'M BBAAAACCCCKKKK!
hello blogging world!!!
these holidays i've done a mission, lost my income, moved house twice, gone interstate and been on every form of transport there is, incuding horseback.... and the uni holidays aint over yet.
so anyway through all that i've been doing a lot of thinking some of which i will share with you at some stage i'm sure.
i have been to a few different churches and different situations through these past weeks where i have noticed that there are points where people are no longer are led by God and just take over. this can go in two extremes where, for example, the church service is so rigid and things have to be done in order and there are not allowed to be any changes in the service. or the other extreme where the music is loud, the atmosphere is created and people come for an 'experience' or 'fix' of God.
neither extreme is good. i do however believe that God can work in these circumstances, but that God is not given control of them and that people have taken over.
when we do surrender control to God that's when we are safe and God moves.
