To some people, the belief in God is insanity, to others, the lack of belief is.
So who's opinion is right when it comes to these issues?
But of course, the answer that is more clear than the other must be right.
And doesn't that bring us back to opinion?
Has Earth evolved from primordial soup on the backs of crystals, or did God speak it into existence?
Did Paul really mean that no woman should ever teach in a church?
Did God really tell me that this is where I'm supposed to be and who I'm supposed to be with?
Who's opinion is right?
My pastor's must be.
Then again, my father is right on that one...
Can you see how trying to find the truth can be overly exhausting?
In my opinion, the Bible is the ultimate truth because the Holy Spirit has lead me on many an adventure that relying on His Word - Jesus Christ was the only way to get through it.
Then again, there are so many interpretations to the Bible.
Who's is right?
I think Francis Chan hit it right on the money when he spoke of reading the Bible and letting the Holy Spirit guide you instead of being spoon-feed by so many other inputs.
But what of those who have been searching the Word for answers, and in this they have found the ultimate answer of where they need to be and who they need to be with, and then it fails?
Did God lead me astray?
Or were the desires of my heart in the way?
I have no ultimate answer to these questions.
All I have is Faith.
No matter where I end up, or who I end up with, I know God's got his hand wrapped around it. This is called peace.
A peace in Christ that I can rest in no matter how bad the world gets.
I had to fight for this peace.
And I still do, every day.
Satan attacks on all sides. He knows right where to tear through my head to get to my heart.
And it's a fight.
Do I loose some battles?
Many.
Do I win the war?
Definitely.
Only because I'm on the winning side.
When I am wrong, I admit it, and I move on.
God is on my side, He's got me covered.
No worries because he told me not to.
(Philippians 4:6)
And if believing in this ultimate God who loves me and disciplines me as His own child, who so perfectly died for me, who is with me everyday of my life, is insanity,
then sign me up for the loony bin.
My God is omnipresent, He'll be there too.
