It's Not Easy

 Life doesn't feel easy at times. I don't know how else to explain it. It's just life, I mean what else is there to it? Well, there appears to be a lot to it that I don't understand. I wish I understood it all, but I doubt that will be a possibility. Let's face it, life can be difficult.

So many things to wish for and believe in, yet I'm not quite the believing type. I know that's on me, and I need to be better at that. I need to believe in some kind of supreme being of sorts. That they have my best interests at heart and all of that. But it's difficult to do when you can't see them. Can't talk to them. Can't hear them etc. I need something physical I can actually touch, and I don't have that.

I've prayed about it a lot and I don't think prayer is working out for me. Maybe meditation would work out better, I don't know. Maybe religion just isn't for me. But if there is a chance that there is a God, He wouldn't be down for that now would he. No, I didn't think so. That's what makes it difficult.

Either there is a God who is directing everything in the universe or there isn't one. If there isn't one and we're all just piddling around down here. Then great. Nothing changes. But on the off chance there is one? There will be hell to pay when the end time comes.

That's what I'm afraid of the most. Not knowing. They say to have faith and all of that. How can I have faith when my logical brain is telling me no. Do you see the problem I am facing? It always comes back to the same question. Is there a God or not. I thought I knew. Now I'm not so sure. I don't want to offend Him if He does exist naturally. I hope He would understand my confusion at this time in my life. If He doesn't understand? Well, that's a pickle now isn't it.

So many things to wish for, so many things to hope for. Either they are true, or they are not. There is no middle ground. I feel lost at times. So lost and there's nothing I am able to do about it. It would be nice to be able to figure it all out once and for all and to stick to that plan. I don't know how to do that. What if the way I choose is the wrong way? Will I be happy with my choices? If I just live a good life, is that enough? I don't have a clue.

Not having a clue can sometimes be a blessing in disguise. You simply can't have all the answers all of the time. So, if that happens then you'll have something to think about. Yeah, it goes something like that. I'm not sure if that's even the right wording for any of it, but that's just how it is.

I wonder if there's something out there that will tell me the answers I want to know. If that being is God? Then I sure hope He'll do it one of these days.

That's just life.

Didn't Sleep

 What's the point of sleep anymore if I can't sleep? I don't think I slept any good last night. I was awake at 3 am wondering to myself, what on earth am I doing awake? Yeah, that happened. It doesn't make any sense. Fortunately, it's the weekend. So, I can catch up on sleep tonight. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to actually sleep for once. Whatever the case, I hope I'll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. We will see what happens.

What's The Point?

 So, tell me, what is the point of believing in a spiritual supreme being? I often wonder what that is all about. I know religions say that God, as some call him, is our father. We pray by starting with our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Yet sometimes it feels like he is absent from our lives. Is it due to how we are living our lives? What exactly is the cause of that feeling? Some people believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost are one person. Others do not. It is interesting to me to see what all churches believe in. I myself do not go to church. I don't believe in organized religion. I have my bible on my phone, so it's me and my bible. That is my link to God. It makes me wonder if that's enough though. I have faith in Christ, I believe in him. Is my faith sufficient to be forgiven of my sins? I do not know. I do know that wherever I end up in the afterlife, I will have done my best to follow Christ. I believe the scriptures which lay out Christ's...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
