I think I'll write a post about worrying about what I write but anyways- I don't remember being told how to believe when I was small. My parents didn't church (my mother did after I was older and she was always Christian) but I do remember questioning everything about Christianity and God. Forever I have. I've never been able to be fully convinced of anything in my life (or fully brainwashed). I pray. I believe in God, though I'm still trying to place his whereabouts at times (is everywhere in everything or out there somewhere holding down the eternity). I read the bible. Seriously. Then I step out and consider the context. I've come to believe that not everything is literal and I get annoyed at those who take every word at face value. Perhaps my love for metaphors help me to see that? I felt bad about writing this post- the part about the child growing up and the ugly things I said. I think I will edit this one! I do think there are some who do fit the description, however but I shouldn't have said that about every believer as it came across!

Then, I left Surry County. THEN, I went to college. I question everything AND pray, just not like I was told to do.Dflyloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06584850810313432670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1650603498367478015.post-72374570411405775422012-05-01T16:50:39.781-04:002012-05-01T16:50:39.781-04:00I will ponder over this, after my nightly prayers....I will ponder over this, after my nightly prayers.derekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08040180515299250698noreply@blogger.com
