It's been a while since I have posted anything on this blog.
One reason I began this particular blog was that I recognised how I was searching for what I believed, and how I would live that out. This was a place to talk freely, to share, to write about what was going on in my head and my heart (sometimes its scary how much is in there!).
For a really long time I feel like I've been looking for the right label for myself. Do I call myself a fundamentalist, or more of a liberal? Do I believe women should or shouldn't speak in church? Do I think homeschooling is best or sending my kids to school? What is my position on gay marriage?
Am I this or am I that?
Do you know how exhausting it is? If you do, I'm sure you can empathise, if not, it will probably come one day ;)
So for awhile I haven't really wanted to identify with any label.
In my head I've gone back and forth between fundamental and liberal, and so my views and opinions on things have changed a few times.
I had work it out though, because its been doing my head in!
What is the one thing I know for certain I believe and want to live out, no matter what extreme I could be?
The answer to that question is that I believe in Jesus Christ as my Saviour.
I realised I don't have to apply any other label.
I don't have to know what I believe about everything else!
This one question I can answer trumps all those I can't.
So there's a lot I don't know still, but I do know the answer to that one important question!
