Confused

You know I try not to judge others, especially Christians. I don’t think it’s our place to say whether or not someone is “Christian” enough. I believed we are all saved the moment we believe in Jesus, and I believe we start the sanctification process once we REALLY commit our life to Christ and vow to live our life for Him, and seek God’s will everyday of our life.

It’s not my place to say who is Christian enough. I’m not going to judge anyone. But I will say that anyone who judges other Christians, bashes them, criticizes them, or belittle them is wrong! Does that mean you’re “not a Christian”, NO! But it does mean your wrong. Wrong is wrong, right is right.

I’m tired of reading CHRISTIAN books that say Christians who homeschool their children are LIVING IN A BUBBLE! I’m tired of reading blogs that make fun of other Christians and mock them. I’m tired of it all.

But most of all – it’s all very confusing! What does it really mean to be a Christian? What does Christianity look like?

If I’m confused then I’m sure the non-believer is also confused! I can tell you one thing Christianity is NOT what it is being portrayed on the internet or in some books. Yes, people make mistakes, but it’s getting to be a bit ridiculous.

More and more Christians (both liberal and conservative) are looking more and more like the world, and it’s sad. You know sometimes I WISH I could live in a bubble, but I know that’s not what God wants. But you know it’s not easy being different.

Praise God though that my little life – made up of a mom (me), a daddy (my husband), and three kids can be my safe place. We are all working to be in line with God’s will for our life. If people can’t stop and see that, and instead criticize it, then so be it.

I am just so confused…being a Christian is more difficult among other Christians. The non believer accepts my beliefs more than the believer does…

When I realize Things Aren’t Going My Way

OK so I’m a bit upset about how things are going. Nothing is going as planned. We look to God to OPEN DOORS but they just remain tightly shut.

It’s been something that has been happening for awhile. I just don’t get it! I keep telling myself it’s happening for a reason, but I still don’t see it. A lot of the things we are depending on can only be brought forth by God.

Of course I wonder what I’m doing wrong. I really don’t want to wallow here.

God is revealing himself to me in many different ways, but not the ways I would like Him to. It almost feels like He’s not there to hold us up anymore, but just when I’m thinking this He does something that just says “I’m still here.”

I keep telling myself to be patient, and keep the faith. But it’s difficult when I do this and nothing happens. Or it doesn’t go the way it needs to go.

I guess we are just struggling right now, and I know we’re not the only ones. Thinking it must be something in the air.
