CaffeinatedFaith: Communication

  • justinh · 1 year ago
    Communication seems to flow down. It is hard to communicate with the people around you if you are having trouble communicating with God. Good communication with Him will work out many issues and lead to some amazing things in our lives. Thanks for the article.

    Ya know, I never even thought about it that way - If I'm having
    trouble communicating w/ God then it may be part of the reason I'm
    having trouble communicating w/ others around me. Hmmmm...food for
    thought.
    Thanks for the comment.

    "Much of the communications between my fellow followers of Christ have been disrupted in a similar manner. Some focus on individual verses rather than reading the Word in context. The debates get heated, and new division occurs as one side rallies against the other."

    i just lost a friend to this. this and that i wont subscribe to her thinking and if anyone tries to challenge it, its a war. so ive had to step away. im kinda in the grieving process right now. my heart is grieving - but i know, as odd as it sounds, its the best thing.

    having said that...i have A LOT to learn. and this only pushes me to dig in even deeper.

    HE is still God and on the Throne and His purpose will prevail.

    My own tradition is just as crazy. In many small southern towns you will find several churches of Christ - none of whom will fellowship the other over some disagreement. Am I 100% right? Heck no. Is anyone? Only the one who was crucified for my sins. And the sooner people wake up and realize that we are all human - and therefore fallible - the sooner we will understand why we need to associate the baptists with the methodists and the lutherans with the presbyterians (and everybody else).

    We are all one body.

    Don't give up on your friend. Pray and ask the Lord for guidance.
