"I was at this time living, like so many Atheists and Antitheists, in a
whirl of contradictions. I maintained that God did not exist. I was
also very angry with God for not existing. I was equally angry with Him
for creating a world." --C. S. Lewis
Psalm 111:10
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom;A good understanding have all those who do His commandments.His praise endures forever.
Proverbs 3:13, 17
Happy is the man who finds wisdom,
And the man who gains understanding... Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace.
A friend of mine recently did a blog about peace. Peace within oneself and peace with men. According to the Bible, true lasting peace only comes with the fear of the Lord. When you fear God, you don't fear anyone or anything else. What man wants means nothing. What happens to you on a day to day basis doesn't matter. The fact that God is the only one who can destroy both body and soul, and at the same time God is the only one who loves us as fallen humans totally, unconditionally, without outside help, just because He does.
There is no peace like knowing that you are totally in God's will and that anything that He doesn't allow can't touch you.
I am not there yet. I still let the cares of this life draw me away, and cause me to worry; when I should be focusing on what God has told me to do.
I am trying to get there, but it really is easier said than done, especially when the world looks so appealing, or it is something that matters to you.

| I have a monumental case of writer's block and it's not even funny. Ihave 4-10 pages to complete for a short story in my creative writing class, and guess how many pages I have done? One. ONE ONE. ONE ONE ONE ONE ONE.
Everything else has been crap crap crap. The little that I have been able to write. It's disgustingly bad crap, and I am so pissed. Very, very, very pissed. | | |
| I think that the two stories I'm writing are directly related to what God is doing in my life right now.
Brie Rose is about a young man healing from sexual abuse and learning to trust again; to trust God and to trust his new found family. I amin this same process, as well. I know that I should trust God and believe His word but why would he let those things happen to me, then allow me to pass that along? I know that God has a plan for my life, but I want to know why this plan includes kicking me in the guts!
Isn't this a question for every human? Who would a loving God let things like Katrina or 9/11 happen?We let doubt come in, instead of saying "I don't know what God is doing or why but He's proved himself in the past and 'all things work together for good for them that love theLord and are called according to His purpose'and I chose to trust Him."
This is somewhat of what has hapened to Brier. Also, his life as become so much about minute-to-minute, second-to-second survival that. before he was with his family, he had no time (or felt he had no time) to even ponder the question of the existence of God, much less try to get to know Him.
Land Forbidden is more about the passionate love to be found in totally giving ourselves over, totally submitting ourselves to God, and God's even more passionate love for us.
I haven't decided yet, but Prince Keitaro, who is on an epic quest for his one true bride, his Beloved, will either represent Jesus and His desire to have a relationship with us, or a believer who, in going after the good things of God, has forgotten God himself. Once he remembers that God is the center, not his bride, she is standing in front of him. Land Forbidden will be liberally sprinkled with lines from the Song of Solomon, because that book of the Bible really embodies the the feel that I want to come from this stroy. | | |
