some current thoughts

-i was thinking about KL while i was in Atlanta.  i kept telling people about my 'church.'  it just didn't sound right... 'church'  what can i call these people who i love and care for so much?  it's not just a church, not just a group of people...  these people are my people.


suddenly i felt like a traveler far from home longing to be in the land of his people.

-i have been watching Battlestar Gallactica.  its a complex show with many themes that really appeal to me.  some might say even jewish friendly... 

two races of people cylon and human.  the cylons have 12 colonies or 13 depending on who is doing the counting.  the cylons are monotheistic and the humans are polytheistic.  everyone is in spaceships flying around the universe's trying to find earth.

i really identified with it, but when it comes down to it, the show misses who Gd is. and really the only reason i was watching it was to escape my perception of my current situation. 

i turned it off halfway through the final episode.  it had lost all interest.  it does not compare to the glory of the living Gd who has a plan and purpose for my life, my people and the world. 

-what i said sunday night wasn't intended to sound like everyone needs to come in line with what KL thinks is good and bad...  as a group of people who are spiritually bound together, everything we do effects the group.  my sins. my jealousy. my bitterness. my joy. my peace. my striving for righteousness in all things.  all of it effects the whole group. 

so, as much as we as a community can pursue righteousness together we will be more effective as a whole. 


Gd made us for community.  We need each other.  imperfections and all. 

In the Ruler season there were a few spiritually attune people who Gd has used to impact and change the world.   in the Mercy season Gd will pour out His Spirit on thousands of people.  churches will be more about community and working together for Gds purposes than getting on board with the few people Gd has chosen.

idk why im sharing this...  i guess i wanted to repent too for not taking my effect on the community seriously.  i have been rather selfish lately.  i want to serve the living Lrd with my whole heart but somewhere along the line that got twisted into serving KL instead of Him.  Ultimately i will be standing before Him at the judgment.  There will be no telling Him it was just easier to coast off of what Tom and Paul and Eric fed me. 

- well, folks hope that's not confusing.  shower and bed then off to avodah (worship Gd with my work)!!
