Comment on My Testimony - Vision

Christopher Fox — Sun, 18 May 2008 22:25:53 GMT

Thank you Joe for trusting in me and sharing your insight. We have come a long way on our journey. I believe we will continue to grow and understand more everyday. My feelings may get the best of me from time to time but I always come back to God for guidance. I will do my best to be patient, kind, and loving towards my fellow man and to continue to work on reducing my stress to be in the peaceful we both know. The one thing I try to keep in my thoughts at all times is “treat others as you would want to be treated”. The rest is up to God.

I believe in open communication and wear my heart on my sleeve, which can be good and bad. At the very least I hope other's see I am true and I will do anything I can within my power to help. It tears me up when I see my fellow co-workers or friends in emotional or physical pain / anguish. The question I have been wrestling with is whom are we praying to? Do we pray to the almighty dollar and the corporate world, which I believe, is destroying the world around us or do we pray for our fellow co-workers, friends, family, and leaders of this world? I will continue to pray for all the employees at work and the one's who were let go. May they find their way and may we help them... God has put us here in this place and time for a reason and may not know that reason yet but I am sure it will become clear as we move forward. Your prayers reminded me why God gave me life. A long time ago I came to God and felt he was in need. He is need of our love so I prayed for him. It was a profound night and I know why I am here.

Choice, Wisdom, & Inner Peace,

Thank you for sharing this with me and it really hit home to what I am trying to accomplish as a person. This gives me a good starting point. For many years I've been trying to attain inner peace and self realization. I know what my state of mind is but I have to catch the overwhelming emotion with a choice. Hopefully, with practice and help from good people such as yourself I will attain the inner peace and relaxed state of mind I've been searching for. The one place I feel comfortable collecting my thoughts and reflecting on my past weeks thoughts and actions is church. My fellow brother Knights are my other source of support and seem to have that inner peace.

Sincerely,
Chris Fox

God is good my friend. He brings folks in our lives, and back in our lives, when we least expect it (and most need it). Not sure how or why, but soon I imagine it will be revealed. Keep smiling friend! The world needs it!

I was just re-reading some comments. I really like what Jim stated: "Only by feeding the new nature, can you reach the level in which you and I seek".

That's just like the story of the 2 wolves battling within your head. When the grandson asked which wolf wins, the Cherokee? said "The one that you feed."

My Brother, This book of the two natures is wonderful! and alot of what is said I knew(because I've feed my spirit with GOD's food for the spirit(the Living word for GOD) I hunger for it(the(ONLY)Truth) I want you, and I to study this book(the two natures). And through this study(Searching(eating the word of GOD) all the scriptures mentioned in it),Will we nourish our spirit to the higher plane that we seek.For the writings of man cannot feed the spirit, only the word of GOD can.In Your entry today you say"this is why I still fail at times." It is the old nature that fails at times, and always will. Yet the new nature is the real you and is and was made perfect By GOD. Only by feeding the new nature(or spirit) can you reach the level in which you(and I) seek.
Your brother in Christ.
Jim.
