What is happening?

Well my thoughts today have been dominated by the sudden news of two people I have come to look up to in recent times. One being Mike Guglielmucci and the claims of him not really ever being sick and the other being Todd Bentley, who has had to step down from his ministry due to a break down in his marriage..... shivers.

The only word I can use to describe how I am feeling is rattled. It has caused my brain to go into a spin and caused me to think about God and what I (we) can learn from both of these events....

God..... why do You use people to execute your will here on earth? We are broken, sinful and the like....

We see it all through history and obviously we are still seeing it today. We saw it in King David, we saw it in Moses, we saw it Peter..... we now see it in Mike G, we see it Todd, I see it in me..... I just haven’t been caught out yet.... and you can probably see it in you..... and so let's not be quick to judge, but be quick to pray and to love.....

Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians that we are cracked pots. God uses us, to show it is not us doing the amazing things but Him. I have always thought when it came to Todd Bentley.... I don’t understand why him but gee whizz I love what God is doing. I still believe that God is working in and through the brokenness that we see and is in the process of orchestrating something good out of this mess.... but who knows what it will look like, other than God, Shivers.

I still believe in God and his ability to heal, and to amazing things among us....

here goes...

I am new to this and i am now ready to get some of my thoughts out there....
