The kids and I went to church this morning. We were invited by Ryan's parents. He didn't go, and I'm 100% ok with that. Will I go back? That's debatable.
I didn't have a life changing experience. I know all about the bible, God & Jesus, the relationship and so on (I know I'm not an expert, just a figure of speech), I was into that when I was in high school. I have grown up, and I realized a long time ago that certain beliefs I did not agree with. I always felt awkward and out of place when I would go, and I finally realized it just really wasn't my thing.
I haven't been to church in a very long time either, and it was very awkward for me this morning. I cannot explain what I felt other than that. I was actually quite nervous!
This is what I can tell you:
I believe that there is a god for everyone, and whatever that god is to them is their business. I cannot change what they believe and I don't ever want to. If that makes any sense. If that's what makes you happy, gives you peace, then so be it.
I'm not big on debates, that gets people nowhere, and I'm not one to argue against values. I will say, though, that when my kids are old enough to understand and ask me about it, I will teach them whatever they want to know. It's not my choice to deny them anything that they want to learn. And if they want to go and be a part of a church I will not stop them. I want to and will support whatever life throws at them and me!
So that's my "deep insight" for now-and I'm sorry if I offended anyone, but it's something I had to get off my chest.
Onto real life matters of our day:
After church the girls went to the farm and I came home. Ry and I watched a movie (21 Jump Street-love it!!) and then headed to the farm as well.
I did some online Xmas shopping for the kids-that took me forever, as I'm very indecisive!
Ps-enjoy the storms tonight!!! :-)
