It really does. Be your most authentic self. It saves your time most especially
How we represent Jesus to other people. By helping, not preaching at them.
Yoga is pretty good too. Lol I’m going to get so many downvotes for my comments on these, I can feel it!!
"Come to me, all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest." Jesus (Matthew 11:28)
Tell that to my past trauma 😬 I was not ready for those opportunities. I like the intention behind these comics but some of them are a bit delusional or at the very least turning random events and everyday life as “god’s plan”, “god works in mysterious ways,” etc. I do not believe nor is there any evidence or suggestion that opportunities are created by god, nor your readiness for them. A lot of times for me it depends how I feel on any given day on whether something will work out or not - not whether god had the door open or not 😂 Replace the word “god” with “josh” or some random guy’s name and you’ll see how silly it sounds with some of these.
So God only picks a few to focus on and ignores most other? I'm generally curious how this all works?
Why? I used to believe this it-shay and literally didn’t know I had to leave dangerous situations to stay safe because I thought God must’ve placed me there for a reason. You can shine bright and be in bright places too! That’s the goal!
Overtime, I’ve learnt that God will most times always use what you have in your hands to open doors and create new paths for you 🤗
Unbeliever…not a fan of that word. It suggests you are not what you are supposed to be or not the norm. People can’t help what they believe or not, it is something you can’t choose, only change with information and its interpretation. I think people don’t realise how othering it sounds.I’ve also heard “non-believer”, which I prefer.
For those who don't know the reference: Jesus was preaching in this crowded house and the man who was unable to walk couldn't see him or ask to be healed because the place was packed.. So his friends frikkin dug through the roof to lower him on a board. Jesus healed and forgave him and the man walked out.
There’s a lot of incest and genocide in the Bible. Do I ignore those parts or do I go ahead with that too?
One of the recurring themes in these is that the protagonist is kind, generous, etc. because of their faith, or because of their god. Does that imply that without the man in the sky they wouldn't feel compelled to help their fellow humans?
That's kind of the whole point of religion. The core concept is if you don't have their version of God in your heart, and you don't worship their way, you can't know how to be a good person because you lack the Lord's moral code. It's really really dumb. A godless man who does good on his own is more holy than a man with God. Such a better sentiment<3 (some old famous Christian Greek philosopher said it first lol so don't come after me for it)
