It’s Time To Talk

I think I’m a pretty reasonable guy. I wouldn’t say that I’m pig-headed or anything (notice I’m not asking for anyone else’s opinion yet) and I think that I am fairly open to having discussions with other people on subjects that I know a lot about, or even very little.

If you are like me, I think that the areas that we seem more knowledgeable on are the topics that we are a little more vocal on. The topics where we don’t seem to know a lot of information about are the ones where we sit back a bit more and gather the details.

I love the fact that God said in Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, let us reason together.” There is no doubt that God pretty much has the information area covered. We are not going to throw some curve-ball at God and have Him try to scrounge around looking for the proper response.

Yet He invites us to ‘reason’ with Him. I think that He does that because we will then go to Him with our thoughts, frustrations, concerns or worries knowing that it is going to be a discussion rather than some one-way rant. God isn’t going to sit us down in some corner and lecture us, neither is He going to sit back and take all of our belly-aching. It’s about bringing reason to one’s thoughts or viewpoints. In God’s case, He won’t lose, but maybe, just maybe, we’ll change.

This blog is here so that you can not only hear my heart and thoughts on certain issues, but also give you a chance to comment and bring your own perspective to the topics. I will never think that I am the ultimate authority on anything. Some things I’ll feel pretty comfortable defending. Others I will sit back and learn from the experienced in those fields. Either way, I feel that we can learn from each other’s journey with Christ and grow together in our walk with God.

That’s how I see it, for now.
