I am saddened to discover the event in Marin is sold out. I will be searching for tickets in various places having been stirred here on this very page. Today I had picked up a copy of Grace (EventuallY) by Lamott. I related with you Carolyn, on being a seeker. I am a worship leader, a singer, writer, and READER. Jesus and I have walked , limped, and crawled through many painful paths together. I have Relfex Sympathetic Dystrophy. (http://rsdsa.org) Because of my religious background, it took a great deal of transformation for me to allow God to reveal Himself to me in His way. Shedding the shoulds, the curiosity built up and up and brought me on the most fulfilling journey of my lifetime. A freefall began. I chose to be curious, to question, and to receive love like I’ve never felt before. It was extremely humbling.
The best tool, I still work with it, was a training where I spent three days discovering what false belief systems I had created that were hindering me from having what I truly desired with God, Jesus and my family. I was hiding from life using religion as a means to isolate. from my family. It was scary to think that God isn't limited by my control...BUT, as my paradigms shifted, I saw that our thoughts aren’t original, people before us had them too, the fear of expressing them slowly goes away. It’s comforting reading these replies and seeing that we’re all in discovery. I love it!
Thanks for reading, please feel free to write on…
The opposite of faith is… certainty. I’m so certain of my faith, my friendship with Christ, that I am free to question EVERYTHING, like a child.
Love Wins, K
