Conversations

Last night I had an amazing conversation with someone. Do you ever get that feeling that you are in the right place doing the right thing at the right time? Like you are in your element and the Holy Spirit is there working right along side you? Last night felt like that to me.

There was this guy who wanted to tell me about a 'spiritual awakening' he had that had revolutionized the way he thought about things. He opened up about his struggles and questions concerning God and the bible. But these questions and struggles came from a deep and sincere desire to know the truth.
In Proverbs 2 verses 3-5, it says "if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God."

God wants us to search for truth! Sometimes, even although that path seems to bring us away from God, His word promises that he will reveal himself! Please, search for truth, for in searching for truth you are searching for God who says that "I am the way, the truth and the life!"

  1. I find when I am not seeking, I feel useless, but when I am seeking, I feel alive!
    I often got "too busy" and use that as an excuse for not searching for truth. It takes time and effort. I know that I need to get my priorities straight when a busy schedule of "doing stuff" takes me away from seeking and finding, learning and understanding!

About Me

My photo
Someone once asked me what my core values are. I didn't have to think too long. I value family and friends. I love my wife and my little boy Nigel sooo much. I value honesty and genuine relationships. I love to travel and spend time outdoors. I love God and am surprised at how timeless He is. I love His grace, his creativity, but most of all I love that he is Love. The depth that 1 Corinthians 13 has made on my life is immeasurable and it continues to challenge and change me. There is so much more to me. Hopefully you will find out more through my blog and time spent with me!
