was reading kevins blog and he had some questions i was thinking about lately too...
do you feel Gods love? does it exist? maybe freud was right, we just created this idea to feel better about life and ourselves. or skinner, and we have been taught to respond to certain religious stimuli and think we are actually having a spiritual experience.
during a biblestudy thing with my student union, we sang a song about worshiping God with heart, soul, mind. i think i kinda focus on the mind part, dont really work on the other two. i guess i dont really know how too.
ever wish for writing on the wall? i think thats part of my problem. seek and you will find, right? i just wish. dont do much actual seeking.
i have become very lazy.
and its affecting me in every way possible. i dont feel God anymore.
or maybe its just my winter depression kicking in and it will all be better in the spring.

i know god's love exists. i may not feel it all the time, but i choose to believe it exists. i don't know how to operate otherwise....
yeah, sometimes i do wonder if god exists - usually i get those feelings when i think about how easy it is to go to church and come out feeling good about god's love. and i wonder if all of this is a human creation, something like a darwinian self-preservation mechanism, to keep us humans happy. but i still choose to believe god exists.
and re: writing on the wall, would that leave us with any choice? if we saw something like that, are we choosing to believe? do you believe water flows out of a tap? i do, not on faith, but simply cause i see it.
and yet i often crave for biblical writing on the wall moments - whenever i don't feel god, i really want his affirmation.
yeah, i hear you amanda.
