The Red Words

So here i am joining the ranks of countless others with their own little piece of internet real estate. 

If you’ve come to find out about my day, where I’ve been lately, the latest gadget I bought, or where I had an awesome meal, you will be disappointed (Msn me if you want to know :D ) instead what you will find here are some of my thoughts about God and the things of God.  (Ok so you may find out a bit about my day as that’s usually where these thoughts spring from, but it’s not the impetus of this blog).

I’m someone who likes to think alot and I find myself thinking alot about cause and effects, observing people - their actions and words and seeing their effects but I’ll be the first to admit that although it’s pretty easy to see God in hindsight and get a feel of His sovereign plan, trying to understand why He orchestrates or why certain events happen in the world is pretty elusive.  I may not fully understand now, but I do know everything makes sense, every life lost, every heart broken, every victory won, every constant in the universe, every sub atomic particle zipping around a probability cloud, every opportunity to do good, every decision to do evil I’m pretty sure they all make sense, but the catch is we gotta look at it from God’s perspective. 

The thing is we’ve picked up so much baggage from the going’s on in the world that our views are filtered and coloured to the point where most of us, either become angry/fustrated at God or just sit in the area of well God is God, but I strongly believe that there is a much more relevant God at work here, someone who is alot more intentional, that He is just not all Holy, sitting up there waiting for the second coming but really wants to see you and me, live the dream that He has for us here and now, and He puts us in the front row of lessons and principles that if we took time out to consider and come to some conviction about, we’d go through this life with much confidence in the One who the world laughs at but needs the most.

So here I am, hoping that by sharing my thoughts your inputs will allow me to consider things that I myself may have missed through my filtered view.  Think of the ‘God Thoughts’ not as messages, sermons or devotionals but rather as an idea i’m bouncing off you to see if it sits well with you too.

Oh and if you’re wondering where the name of this blog derives itself from, go and have a read of the Gospels, it’s everywhere ;) .

Save The World.
