Bible Note: It's amazing, MJH, how much your circumstance resembles mine. At first I found different ways of thinking and teaching troubling. I realized I was very comfortable believing what I believed (after all, it was good enough for my mother and my father)and didn't want to be challenged, come out of my comfort zone, as it were. But the more I am challenged, as you so wisely stated, the stronger my faith has become. It has and is still quite a roller coaster ride....and I am convinced will continue to be until I meet Him face to face! |
