Once again I have successfully wasted time.
BUT for a good purpose.
Recently, I have been devoting my time to reflecting, reflecting, and more reflecting. I tend to do it the most right after my New Testament class just because it puts me in a trance. Like I pay attention and I participate; however, when I leave the class, real life still hasn't hit me. My inference: New Testament just affects me spiritually.
Something about this class alters my perspective of reality; I guess you could say it opens my mind. To be honest, I really don't know what to say or how to explain it.
One thing I do know, though, is that I'm definitely gaining some insight as to what I believe.
My faith used to, and still does, lie within my family, both extended and immediate. I really feel God's presence when I am with them. It is not that I don't feel God otherwise; it's just when I am around them that I know for sure God is there. I will admit, I don't feel comfortable talking about my faith outside of church, family, and other specific circumstances, because religion is quite a controversial subject. Plus, what I believe is a mixture of things...I wish I could explain or affirm what my true beliefs are, but there aren't really words to describe them. Like I said before, what I think or consider regarding faith/religion is a compilation of multiple ways of life or ideas. Maybe one day I will be able to express it logically.
That is the point of this post. Sorry to disappoint.
