[Faith-talk] Eastern Religions

[debby phillips via Faith-talk]

Hi Brandon, I know this will sound strange from a Christian, but 
I'm not going to even try to convert you.  I think that what I am 
called to do is to show you love and respect, and to try to say 
only what God would lead me to say.  And I just hope that I can 
stay out of the way and let Him lead what I write.  (No, I'm not 
a believer in auto-writing.  (Smile).

First of all, I personally find the idea of living life over and 
over again sad and exhausting.  There are days when I truly long 
to leave this "vale of tears".  I'm not condemning you, please 
don't think that.  I'm just expressing my personal views right 
now.  And when Jesus says in the book of John that He goes to 
prepare a place for us, and that in His Father's house there are 
many rooms, for me that is a promise of hope, of comfort.  
Knowing that I can reach out to God at any time and anywhere is 
awesome to me, (though I have not always lived my life in a 
manner that was true to how I want to live my life.  I rejoice 
that the Lord loves me, and you and the whole world.  I feel bad 
that those of us who call ourselves Christian are not always very 
good ambassadors or representatives of the Christ we say we 
follow.

Take care of yourself, and I pray that God will bring you peace 
in your soul, and joy in your heart.    Debby
