Ok….I have an experiment for everyone. I did it and it became real. It isn’t the first time I did it and certainly won’t be the last because of the mere fact that every time I do it, it brings on insight and growth.
So, before we proceed, if you don’t want insight and growth and I do know people who have said “no thanks”, you might not want to do this.
Remember, if we are staying in the attitude of love, then every person has the ability to choose and we would love them through that choice. It doesn’t mean that we condone or even agree with what people do and vice versa, may not agree with what I do, but love would still be present allowing for people to grow more as they desire.
First, before we get to the experiment, that last paragraph paralleled something in the Bible – judgement.
What I try to bring to my writing and I truly hope it comes across is that I, myself, am a believer in God, Jesus, the Cross, redemption and the fact that I believe in the Bible’s teachings. I also will not argue, debate or “thoroughly discuss” as some have put it unless we want to get into a deep conversation about God’s love.
What I also try to bring to the table in my writings is I am not here to judge, nor do I want the job as it is way too burdensome and heavy for me to carry. I try to give out scriptures for people to read, pray on, and ponder for themselves and if they want more understanding, my hope is that they ask God through prayer to shed light on the scriptures.
My relationship is with God, through Jesus, and I am not here to preach it, pound it, throw it or Bible beat anyone. I am here to try, my very best, to live the Bible and its’ teachings, which by the way, is not always easy.
Now……….experiment time!!!!! Who’s in?
Take 30 minutes or even 20 minutes if you can’t take 30 🙂 –
Sit in a room…..no TV, no cell phone, no one else, no radio, no music, no noise. I know……. it just became real already in the world we live in!
Take a note pad and pen in your silent room.
Ready? Go!
What is on your mind? The first 5 minutes or possibly 10, will be all the things racing through your head…..what you need to get done, what you forgot, how silly this experiment is……..all kinds of things will race through your mind………….yet, sit, wait and write down what ALSO is on your mind. What is your heart trying to tell you. What IS bothering you? What images come? Maybe it’s a word, phrase, paragraph or images.
To make this even more intense, take the leap of faith in prayer and ask to be shown something that needs to be addressed in your life, your heart, to come to a place of working through things. Everyone has “things”. Everyone has something that they could improve or need healing of some sort. Sometimes, just sometimes, you get something much more out of it than you even expected.
This has been a very successful experiment with me countless times. My mere desire was to share with you and hope you get just a little out of it, well, a lot of out it 🙂
Again, I will say it as a disclosure, if you don’t want to look deeper in your life where sometimes we all have to grow or heal, this experiment might not be for you.
I hope it is and you are touched deeply today.
Experiment on!
