All in Word of God
There is a difference between faith, and imagination. Both dwell in our minds, but faith springs from trusting the Word of God, and the gospel of Jesus Christ, whereas imagination is founded on fantasy, and the concoctions of our own mind. Some who say “I am a Christian“ are guilty of folding the two into one way of worshiping as they seek what is easy or pleasing to them in God’s will, while imagining the hardships and suffering to be useless, and not of the Lord.
In our lives we are in constant struggle against the dark and evil forces of Satan; how do we defend ourselves and drive him away? What is effective against him, and do we know how to use these tools we have been provided? To answer these questions we turn to Ephesians, and take solace and comfort in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Yesterday I listened as one of my Pastors delivered a sermon on the subject of interruptions, and during it he talked about a section of scripture comprised of a story within a story... one story that interrupted another. As he continued to preach, my mind left on a different route, and the complexity of God’s word dominated my thoughts.
