I'm really nervous about this revolutionary trend of thought that I'm seeing spread around those that I know and love. This concept that unless God says "no" outright, whatever you happen to be thinking or doing is right? That makes me nervous and concerned.
I'm also incredibly concerned about one of my friends. He is making some decisions that are somewhat hazardous to his health, and I'm trying to make decisions based on promises that I have made.
Add to that concern for another friend of mine. I've been praying much for him, and I'm watching start to revert slightly, and it scares me.
Toss in some more concern for another friend, who is taking steps but still needs to be careful.
I AM SO CONCERNED AND I NEED TO PRAY MORE THAN I DO!!!!!!!!!!
Anyhoo...church was today and that was nice. I'm really enjoying going through The Screwtape Letters, by C.S. Lewis with a group of friends, peers, and respected adults. Something that we read today particularly stuck out. It encapsulates what I've been trying to say to several dear ones over the course of the last few years. Keep in mind that this is said by a demon, the said Screwtape:
"Our cause is never more in danger, than when a human, no longer desiring, but intending, to do our Enemy's will, looks round upon a universe from which every trace of Him seems to have vanished, and asks why he has been forsaken, and still obeys."
