Faith continued…a blog not…
Blogging started for me here http://faith35.blogspot.com/ .
I was 35 years old just a bit over 2 years past the death of my Dad. I was ready to allow God to lead me. This is the first 2 paragraphs I typed.
Why do we believe a man who was a simple carpenter, can save our souls from eternal damnation? Why do we throw our faith blindly at a man whose only full historic record is in a book that has caused wars, political arguments, and religious strife for centuries? So what is it about faith in God that captivates some and turns away others? Why do some embrace Faith in God and some shun it?
These questions run deep but they are not the questions that most Christians ask themselves on a daily basis. Most questions have to do with everyday issues; from money to family, from alcohol to sex, from sin to forgiveness. And most of the time we turn to other Christian friends to talk about these issues and seek advice. Have you ever wondered how other Christians talk about these issues, and whether the advice you get or conclusions drawn are biblically sound?
God set me on a journey to learn more about him, draw closer to His Son and learn to filter my life through His Truth. Little did I know where He was taking me and how these questions would com full circle.
This blog has now run it’s course.
This blog has allowed me to get to know some wonderful people.
This blog is now done.
This decision was not easy. But it is one that I have to make.
God has lead me to this point in time. My journey to answer the questions above is not over. My Faith continues into a new ministry.
Philter48 Ministries is just getting started and it is where I will be spending most of my time. www.philter48.com is under construction, and will need real people telling real stories to make it go. You are invited. Come with me as I continue on with this journey of faith to answer these questions.
I leave you with my favorite moment on this blog:
To be continued.
I am always sad when something good comes to an end, but happy that something new is beginning. Thanking God for bringing you along this way..I’m coming too.
