we had a good bible study it was called life interupted it was done without any sound at all. when we arived at the place we where given small sealed folders containg 2 envelops(found out later what was in them) the seal said do not open untill instructed to. they let us in a small group at a time and considering 3000 people come to this thing every tuesday it took a while to filter all of them. we where told to remain quiet and not speak after we got into the main room several verses from the bible poped up on the big screens one of wiche was "be still and know that I am god". normaly it would show our speaker who instead of talking to us with spoken words used a computer to talk to use with writen ones. it was a realy powerful message. here are 4 questions I ask myself when life is interrupted.
1>God,what are you doing in the midst of this interruption?
2>God, who do you want me to connect me with in the midst of this interruption?
3>God, how do you want to use me in the midst of this interruption?
4>God, what do you want to do in me in the midst of this interruption?
5>God, be glorified in the midst of this interrution.
the interrution can be a small thing like someone cuting you off in trafic or you run out of gas and have to walk to your airplane suffers a major failer and you crash and somehow live. stuff like that. though it is mostly the small things that bother us. the realy cool part is even though the walls are comeing down and it looks like the end I know that god is in control.
well thats all of that for now here is this months words of encuragement
For he spoke, and it came to be: He commanded, and it stood firm. The LORD foils the plans of the nations: He thwarts the purposes of the peoples. but the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations. Psalm 33:9-11 [niv]
basicly every thing god does comes from his heart because he loves us. to stand with god is to stand firm forever 3nodding

... that sounds slightly cultish sweatdrop not because god isn't real (to you he is) it's just seem's... i don't know how to say it just be safe ok?
just curious have you ever reserched the history of the bible or different vergins of the bible (um like if you can find a copy of how the bible was traslated 200 years ago, it might be harder to understand but i think it would be neat to see how people have changed it and don't tell me people don't change it cause i saw a documentary on the history chanal about it and thought it was neat so i remembered it) if you ever have free time and want to start a hard project look into that it might be fun for you 3nodding
PS: i'm not trying to dis you with the "don't tell me people don't change it thing" but it's just when i tell people that thay are like "this is the bible this is the only right vergin of it"
