One man’s “magic” is another man’s engineering. “Supernatural” is a null word. - Robert A. Heinlein
Charles says: hi beth
Charles says: i'm having email issues, hows things going?
Beth says: ok.....how
about you......what is wrong with the email?
Charles says: don't know, i'm not recieving or sending, it must be
a server problem at my account providers end
Beth says: I hate when things like that happen......
Charles
says: yeah... such is life… its cold here right now, but sunny
Beth says: It has been raining here.......but
cleared up yesterday afternoon......right now it is only 3:24 am, so I am not sure what it is like outside.....its dark
Charles
says: ook of course, are you up late or early?
Beth says: early.......woke up and could not sleep.....
Charles
says: sure, I relate, its 11:25 am here, so I'm waky waky
Beth says: I am hoping God blesses me with a job soon
Charles
says: Yes... I'm sure God has a plan in motion... Actually I was just thinking about ‘plans in motion’ in terms of prayer
and seeking answers I was thinking that God speaks to us in ‘mysterious ways’ only because God’s ‘ways are higher than our
ways’, which I would liken to this:
Charles says: it must be lot like say a time traveller from now trying to explain
a computer to a caveman
Beth says: true
Charles says: there just isn't the language in place, the consciousness
developed enough to grasp the nuances
Charles says: i mean God could use English, and God does, but the point is
that it is actually a pale version of the message, language just isn't good enough
Beth says: yes
Charles
says: I’ve been frustrated with what i see as a lack of information, but as I am tempted to see it now, I am actually frustrated
not with God, or by God, but with my spiritual growth, and that's a learning curve, as we used to say at school, ‘if don't
like it boy all you have to do is grow up and leave.’
Beth says: I believe God allows these trials for our spiritual
growth.....it takes time and you just have to keep praying for wisdom
Charles says: i will, I'm actually convinced
God is 'speaking' to me, and this time is the process that brings wisdom, I’m just not getting what God is saying yet, but
to 'get it' i have to grow up, and that's a natural process, I might complain about that, but that's like getting mad about
the sky being blue and the grass being green, or dieing, its the way it is
Beth says: in time, God will clarify
what He is saying
Charles says: As we both know when push comes to shove, although oft at the 11th hour things do
happen
Beth says: yes.....PTL
Charles says: Despite all the things that I have experienced - my family
have been through, we've never been without the necessary things in life
Beth says: God is good......He does provide
Charles
says: Crimes I like cream, but it doesn't do us any harm to have 'lent' time, even if we don't like that much <g>
Charles
says: God is good, getting our heads around what God is, is the fun part, I mean as kids good meant overdosing on sugar,
candy - sweets,
Charles says: Our 'good' often falls far short of the actual
Charles says: I guess this
is about me being sorry for being angry at God for not being in a position to explain to me what was going on, when of course
it was me; I wasn't in the receiving position, i wasn't enabled a lot like my email...
