  • 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.

:hug: blessings!!

have you tried writing a journal to the Lord about it?

i would seek counsel from a member of church staff that could both pray and help me sort out these issues. i firmly believe that if the Lord is directing you to do something; it will not only become clear, but you will be propelled by the Holy Spirit.

what you are describing, sounds like you feel called to use your spiritual gifts, but you are still learning what they are. if this is the case, let's direct your thread to building you and your knowlegde up in this area. :hug:

Habakkuk 2.2 I will show you a vision , write it down , though it tarry, it will come to pass ( words of wisdom and knowledge - 1 Corinthians 12 )

You should speak with pastor / elder ...
is there peace when you get the vision or fear ?

Some times the enemy messes with you ...
don't dabble in the occult , ouija boards , tarot cards ...

Any spiritual gift needs some maturity , training , and oversight ....double check to make out it is a "good thing"

Yes indeed, something monumental may come to you as it did for me.

I had a dream:

I was sitting on the ground with my back up against what I thought was a wall, my eyes closed. I felt a drop of rain hit my forehead, and when I opened my eyes I saw the feet of Jesus above me. It was a drop of His blood that had struck my forehead. Instantly I realize where I was, and instantly I felt love come over me, leaving no time for the element of doubt to enter my heart. I was in His presence. For as far as the eye could see, I felt love surround me.
After 18 years of study in the teachings of Jesus, I prayed to Jesus to free me of that small amount of doubt I still had concerning His spirit. It was Jesus who came to me, knowing He could free me of this doubt.

Did something monumental happen to me? Not yet, but soon after it did. I was reflecting back on how so many times I kept coming back to the teachings of Jesus over the years. I came to realize that I was in love with Jesus. As I sat there I also realized that it is Jesus who has more love than I do, and that it is Jesus that this world is so much in need of. I came to know that Jesus is my true love within, and that I wanted to spend my whole life with Him. So I prayed to the father.

Father, I want Jesus to have my heart, my mind, my body and my soul. I surrender my life to Jesus, father, for He is more worthy of my life than I am, and He can do so much in the world than I ever could.

I entered into the kingdom of heaven and became one with Jesus.

This was only a few months ago, and more and more I want to be with Jesus every minute of everyday. All of my life seems foolish and a complete waste, if I am not spending my life in that state of peace with Jesus.

The world can be so harsh to live in, and so bitter. What better way to live life than a peaceful and loving life with Jesus.

In some way I will be with Jesus more often on a day to day basis, and less being caught up in the selfish ways of the world. Perhaps a missionary or something.

I sponsor kids thru a Christian organization, and so I will keep my job, as they require the necessities of life. I guess I already am with Jesus every moment of my day, by maintaining the lifes of others who so desperately need our help.

I would like to get away from the nasty environments some of us work in. Just not now.

It is not a struggle at all for me, rather a labour of love, for I know these kids do not even have food. There really is not anyone who is able to stand in my way, as I fight against the spiritual poverty these kids live with everyday. A careless and selfish world, pretending that everything is fine, when it is not.

A child that has not eaten in two days, food to them, is indeed monumental.

Stay with the love and light of Jesus, for He is the life, and the way for you, and you will love life better than others who do not.

Jesus loves you!

This type of thing can make you crazy. You feel that there is something to do, you dream about it, etc. It can cause you to spend more time trying to figure it out than just focusing on Jesus ...in His light you see light. His timing is perfect and whatever it is it will come to pass at just the right time. It will not be you doing it, but his life in you. He is the author and the perfector of your faith, he gives you the desire and leads you to walk in all that he has planned for your life. My best advise is this...REST! Keep looking unto Jesus, just growing in your relationship with Him, letting him love you and change you and loving Him. As you abide in Him all that he has in store will come to pass...His way, His timing. I have seen His ministry, and I have seen mine....never again do I want to see mine. Be willing to lay this down on the altar. Be willing to be used, or not used as He sees fit. When you can lay it down, and take your hands off, most likely that is when you will see the power of God, the incredible glory of God.

Bless you,
Heather

You feel your life is being propelled to one powerful event and that your supposed to do something? I think each moment spent with God is a powerful event. Some of the most powerful events we have a part in are those were not aware of, like planting a seed that someone else waters and someone else harvests. Do you think the dreams are helpful in guiding you in little things today? When you take care of the little events then the big events usually take care of thenselves. Jesus is lifechanging and he could be prodding you on to one big huge thing, but it takes constant vigelence in the little things to get there. Just keep working at being not doing :thumbsup:
