Help! I Now Have Zero Interest In Religious Activites by Hurlstarling: 1:02pm On Feb 19, 2017 |
I remember so vivid then how ecstatic I was in God's presence. Full of life and joy, in fact led praises in youth gatherings. So it becomes quite unbelievable how vast things have changed over the course of three years, and how well I personally have changed. The beginning of this I cannot pinpoint. However, the causes I can suggest. Over the years I have become an active thinker with logic dominating most of my reasonings. These registered quite a lot of dissonance in what I used to belief and what reality presents as same it has helped in understanding the universe and God purpose for humanity, and what he is doing to achieve this despite the human race being unappreciative. Also, my not so interested in many things and zero emotional level could have also contributed to the lack of Joy in God's presence, since Joy is positively heightened emotion. This then stands not the problem: "My inability to make use of my gift." As a thinker I do so well in the line of writing, so the gift of writing which is intellectual I exhibit without restraint despite my personality, in fact it favours it. My other gift which propels this piece is the gift of worship: I am a songwriter and singer. Unable, is the verb that relates to this gift. Of course I try my best going to church despite my so restrained spectrum of interest. That wouldn't be a problem, the problem is the joy is not so much there: the need to be part of what they do. I see choristers sing and every time I wish I can be part of that, sing with them to the God of my fathers. The gift is there, I have written hundreds of songs, taught couples in the past, still write, just I can't exhibit the will to sing or teach them any longer. I am approaching zero level of interest in spiritual activities. Conflicting is I still love God having understand his plan for humanity. So the author is not an, and can never be an atheist. This is evident in my coming novel "A Loveline" (I will like you read it). So, if anyone knows how, and how and well, well and good, efficient practical not spiritually placed steps to exercise this music skills of mine in God's presence as I expressly do here with my writing skills, I will be glad to see it shared. I don't want it wasted. -Hurlstarling. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Hurlstarling: All you Need to do is take the first step. Overcome the inertia. Join that group and take up a responsibility. You would be surprised and even later come to ask yourself "What Have I been doing"? This is the solution. Nothing more. Stay blessed 2 Likes 1 Share |

Hurlstarling:Funny thing is if you'd allowed yourself to be wrapped under the cloak of "religion," chances of your constructing such a nice write-up would've been very very very slim. All I know is there is something about religion: it bars us from exploring the full potentials of our thinking abilities. 26 Likes 4 Shares |

Now I know this is harsh but a serious problem in your life will resurrect the zeal by fire. So your choice, move now or wait to be moved. Or even "someone" should help you pray for d problem to hasten it's coming. |

I don't know if anyone sees what i see in this forthcoming years, there is a spiritual awakening and "disawakening". Worry not, thou are not alone, but the path thou shall take shall determine thy fate. If i were you i wouldn't conclude so easily about God's plans there are a thousand other people that think they know too. Its a chaotic world, only the dead survive. Lol, Logic that. 2 Likes |
