I sometimes wish that God's plans were clearer to me. I'm sure that everyone has had this instance. I come across situations in my life in which i wish i could just hear that audible voice from heaven telling me what to do. Life would be so much easier to live if that happened. So my question is why? Why not have an audible voice or clear sign that God is saying something. But I think that when I wish this, I miss the point. I miss the point of the Holy Spirit. I could say the the Holy Spirit is often thought of as the forgotten God. Its true. That audible voice that we are looking for is already audible. It's not screaming at us from the heavens, but rather someplace much closer. Ever think that the Holy Spirit dwells inside you because it's the closest to you? That no voice can be any closer than the one inside you? Meaning, the voice that I and many others are often waiting for dwells within you. Meaning, when we can't hear it...we're just ignorant.
Now tell me that ignorance is bliss.
Life is a constant search...people are always looking for something to get them through it. But what would happen if we started seaching for something that was truth? How would our lives change?

Questions?
So totally had something else planned for my next blog, but something came up today that I am extremely passionate about. This blog is sort of out of the spur of the moment....
So what if I am totally wrong about everything I believe to be true? What if the sky we see is not really blue? What if the sun in the sky was not actually there? Obviously these are very extreme examples, but if God is really all He said that He is, then this is an extreme predicament that we are all in. If nothing I believe in is true, then all my life I've been living a lie. Think of the cost, the things all Christians have suffered for. What if we are all wrong? Would it still be worth it? Do we believe in our God and have enough faith that He is the absolute truth that we would give up everything?
