God as he really is

It is interesting how we put limits on God. Even by just saying things like, "Oh" this "is how he blesses us." We limite what we think the way he blesses us. I know that I have had multiple times where God's blessing to me has altered the way that I see him. More accurately it has clarified that I just can't get a grasp on his mentality. He knows more and has different goals than I do.

Transcending Love

Well, I'm not sure anyone will ever read this blog. Sometimes I hope that people don't read this because I actually am going to share some feelings that mean a lot to me. Basically I've decided that God plays too much of a role in my life to not share how much his prescence means to me. I'll make this entry short. I was watching this movie today that was just powerful and had some definately religious overtones. At one point in the movie one of the characters dies and is telling the others as he is fighting through the pain that he sees a light. I know, its somewhat cliche, but it didn't strike me as such at the time. All the other characters in this movie struggled with his death, yet it actually served to strengthen their faith rather than destroy it. I have three friends that just lost loved ones and I know they try to hide it, but they are struggling emensely. What just hit me after this movie is that God takes nothing aways that he will not someday, not long in the future return better than it was before he took it. What deep transcending love he has for us. If only we could see beyond our limited sight and realize that this is all part of the process that makes us worthy of all he gives us. This is magnificent blessing and one that cannot be repaid. I don't understand death really, I just know that God makes everything right that seems wrong and gives so much more than we think he takes.
