If we want to hear the Spirit in our worship, we can’t bring the world into sacred places. Reverence is missing in our worship.
The Gospel goes through dispensations, much like how waves form in the ocean. We, too, have personal dispensations that operate the same way. However, we often only focus on the crest, rather than the build and the impact.
I am an empiricist, so “knowing” God and the gospel is true has always been a struggle. Then I found the scripture that told me that I am okay.
I have failed at pretty much everything I do, despite being able to do pretty much anything I want. It is a difficult pill to swallow, but now I know why.
I have been silent for over a year. I have been depressed, suicidal, and unmotivated. Why am I writing now? Because I choose to, just like I choose to live.
