  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Sometimes I think God is just in my life to make it plain weird. I'm only half kidding. I know that those of you who truly know Him know exactly what I mean. :)

Yesterday, I suddenly had a vision of Jesus sowing seeds on a field. One by one, and then they grew up, one by one. Then they turned into corn stalks, one by one. Then Jesus harvested them, one by one, put them in a basket, and took the basket. At this point He glanced at me with an enigmatic look and carried the basket away. I wanted to see where He took them, but the vision ended. I felt Him smiling at me.

Of course I understand what this vision means. And it's frustrating, yet I love how God works. :) It feels great not to have to worry so much.

Then this morning, I asked, why corn??? (Seems random for a Swede like me) He just said "Midwest". What? Where is He planting these seeds???

I was allowed to share this. No idea if Jesus is growing even more corn through this entry, but I just wanted to share. He is doing so many amazing things lately. He said a while ago I was going to go through a season of spiritual growth. Only God knows where this will lead, but I'm happy.

He has been restoring my soul as well lately. Making all things brand new. Breaking strongholds and strengthening me. I'm learning so much. Everything seems like chaos to me, but God is putting everything in order. I laughed for the first time in months yesterday, and it felt great.

I'm trying my hardest not to flee... His greatness and His Glory is too much for me to take sometimes. It's overwhelming, and honestly, it freaks me out, I've never experienced anything even remotely like it, but I've asked God to make me everything that He can possibly make me, and use me for everything He can possibly use me for. And I better keep walking, because there's corn to grow.

Lol, I better not flake out. Sorry... :p
