What's going on

I don't know. I feel weird. Is it hormones? Is it a spiritual valley? Is it a tunnel? I don't know. I know for sure God is working in my life, no doubt about that. But I'm at a lost these days. A lot of things going on in my mind. A lot going on in life. A lot going on in the home and outside the home.

Today's meeting with M and S went all right. We had planned to go through chapter 4 of their little booklet "Who is Jesus Christ". When they came we started in the end of chapter 3 to "review". I somehow got into a position i don't think i had been before. Not for this long anyway. I talked for most of the hour. The question was something about Paradise Earth and the 144000. The thing is, they believe in a new earth which I too believe there will be a new heaven and a new earth. Fact is, I also believe I will be with God, fully reconciled to be in Heaven. But they don't. If you were "assigned" to be on the earth you will have a physical body and will be stuck on earth. But if you were "assigned" to be in heaven, you will have just a spirit... My problem isn't their theology. My problem is their salvation. I am bothered that they don't believe that once you believe in Jesus, you are His brother and "su casa es tu casa"!!!! You can dwell with God because it is not just God's Kingdom but your kingdom. They believe certain verses don't apply to them. Such as the wonderful phrases about seeing God's glory, being IN Christ Jesus, and have the ONE hope in Christ. Their hope is a "secondary" hope, resurrection hope. A hope from a partial God who refuses to open the door to heaven for them. THAT is my problem. I pray even though I had a running mouth today, that God used me to show genuine love and concern. That a seed of doubt and a seed of salvation were planted in their hearts and mind. It's only been 6 months and also already been 6 months.

LORD Jesus I believe in your perfect will in all of this. SHOW us what the next steps are. STrengthen us in our minds hearts and souls. We just want to show love for them and show them the so called "Christians" aren't that bad like they were taught. Grant us grace to persevere and help us to abide in You. also, Help the new prayer group to connect, carry each other's burdens, be transparent, and to glorify Your name. AMEN.
