| God Spot This Christian Resource Blog has been created by a group of friends from around the world. Our purpose is to provide links to useful resources, some commentary on topical or doctrinal issues, a place where anyone can come with questions and a means whereby we can share our faith. And above all, to grow and encourage each other. As Christians, we believe we bear God's image in this world, and seek to glorify God's name in this endeavour. Any Christian who wants to join with us is very welcome! |

Saturday, June 11, 2005 Relaxing but gearing upGood stuff Shawn on getting through the instructions, I find most things hard the first time and often the second, then it becomes easy. And show some 'fire for the Lord' on the group, and some 'colour' too. No one in years has commented on my e-mail address, 'garypax' where pax is latin for peace.Now we all need peace, especially God's peace, His confort, His love, His care. We are not alone: His is helping us when we do His will. I told Shawn that he could call me a 'crackpot', and I don't offend easily, and on that I wish to share something and have your thoughts: "Touchiness, too, is a mark of the sinful self. The more prickly a person is, the more he or she is using the defence of a false self. Some people bristle easily if they are not taken seriously, thus betraying their need to cover up feelings of unimportance. Others take themselves too seriously and are unable to laugh as themselves. All these things suggest we are not comfortable with our inner selves. We are living falsely rather than truly." This is from a daily series from the fine British Christian writer, Selwyn Hughes. Shirley and I do the study each day, and at present he is on about us Christians having a right understanding of ourselves. He puts to me many a good idea, no thats not quite right, he puts to me clarity of what I've probably had before in reading, hearing or thinking about. ("he" meaning a man insprired by God to communicate). You folk to do, blessings from Gary # posted by Anonymous @ 6:12 am 0 comments
