Questions

It seems that since my return from Brazil I have more questions than I do answers. I came into contact with people who challenged some of my so-called beliefs. I say it that way, because now I questioning even the fact that I don't know what I believe.

I believe in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
I believe that Jesus was the Son of God and born of a virgin.
I believe that Jesus died on a cross and rose again on the 3rd day and is now seated at the right hand of the Father.
My head knows that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit love me (my heart has trouble believing most days).

That is about where I stand right now. It is so strange, but I feel like I have reverted back to a spiritual infant and all I can take in is milk. Maybe I never got the milk in the first place?

All I really know to do is start at the beginning and ask God my theological questions and hope that I can get a basic grasp in the next few years.

If you have any suggestions, let me know...

Home again, sort of

Well, I am home from my trip to Brazil. I was hoping to write more blogs while I was away, but those of you who know about mission trips know that they can be unpredictable with little time to spare. However, I am home now and hope to write some updates and stories about what took place there.

I am still getting settled into my new home, as I didn't have a chance to really do that before I left. So, even though I am "home" it doesn't really feel like home yet. There are tons of boxes in my room and I can hardly move around. Even with all that happening, I am still going to take an overnight trip tonight to Douglasville to visit my church family and pick up my cat, Tucker.

For all of you who were praying for me, thank you. I know that the Lord used me and my team to sow many seeds into the soil of Brazil. I know that one day I will see the fruit of it in heaven and it will be a part of YOUR reward as well!
