to nobody in particular:
...i've decided that i believe the following...
...God is, at every moment, wanting to see individuals come closer to Himself, no matter where they are in their relationship to Him -- whether they know Him well or not, whether they question His existence or not -- but His desire is for each person to move closer and closer to Him...
...He doesn't want to push anybody away, or see them move further from Himself...
...therefore, what should my intention be?...
...do i live my life and find opportunities where i try and "lead others to Christ", or just live in a way that brings me and others closer to God?...
...shouldn't that be my goal -- to live a life for God, wanting to come closer and closer to Him, while at the same time, live an intentional life that interacts with others in a fashion that encourages their
journey/race/trudge/wandering/walk/resistance/trek/waltz to move closer to God?...
...this makes sense to me...
...why should i try and do the Holy Spirit's job -- awakening spiritual eyes to grasp Truth?...
...i don't see this as a perspective that fails in personal responsibility, but merely enhances the focus on intentional living and spiritual-realm awareness...
-----
...and from yesterday, i learned: whenever i say i am going to do something and i have good intentions on doing it, and if it doesn't affect anyone personally and/or negatively, i may not do it
...i learned this yesterday, in that, last night was the first night of my "you learn something new every day" experiment, and i didn't do it -- oops...
