Revelation

[Blessed-one]

what has God revealed to you in the past and present? let's share and learn from each other!

i got a couple:
suffering: it was a few years ago when i was watching a christian movie, the answer to "why does God allow sufferings" suddenly hit me. Suffering is caused by human actions, we cannot blame God because we bring it upon ourselves.

peace: i was quite irritated with a friend, then realising my mistake i prayed and a peace settled on me. wow, it was so profound!

joy: my spirituality was drying up, when i accidentally came across a book that bought joy to heart, real joy! it's hard to describe...
oh, and my weaknesses too eg, impatience

allright, next!

I think I've said this one before God is not an obligation but a best friend.

That's so true. People often mistake God/Jesus as someone the are obligated to follow. He isn't, he is someone who will walk you hand and hand to the pearly gates because 1) He loves us unconditionaly 2) He cares for us more than we will ever know 3) He doesn't want ANYONE to perish into hell and 4) Because he wants to!

Amen to that Nick_Loves_Abba!
