Our church's series on Buddhism, brought in a load of topics, Karma, suffering, etc... It also generated an interesting dynamic/tension for me in terms of reflecting on how people say God can be speaking through circumstances. Although I don't agree with their 'Hinduism borrowed' beliefs about reincarnation, nor do I believe God condemns a person forever, and in most cases, not even throughout one's entire lifespan for one's more 'negative' actions, I have recently been reflecting a lot on how God has been working and speaking to me through my own life up to present day.
I suppose it was only a matter of time that I would end up revisiting some of the 'analogies' God has placed in my life. I will try to not get too personal in this aspect of this post and also use as little of names as possible in the convention I've been using in most of this blog to maintain anonymity. So ironically, I am revisiting the same entry that also brings about the issue of 'anonymity' to blog a bit about this aspect of my life -> http://life-of-agent-k.blogspot.ca/2008/12/dark-k.html Hehe, don't worry, I'm not talking about "THAT" here. Anyhow, I am going to quote the comment someone had left on this entry that proved without a doubt that at least one person other than myself read(s) this blog:
I also had another entry sitting in 'drafts' I haven't completed yet, but seeing I had a dream last night with that featured this particular 'quote twist': "LOL... why does 'Harvey' have a beard?" I think it might be cool to address the secondary meaning perhaps behind God using this circumstance in my life and what He was speaking through it. So the capita"L" at the end of "RacheL" in this entry is no mistake, it was my way at the time of denoting who I was referring to and I don't know whether the person who assigned this character's name is Christian or not; but the interesting dynamic here is that although "RacheL" was indeed someone I wanted to be married to (at the time), I suppose the main issue was we not only was our 'timing always off', but we both saw each other more as 'immediate family members' than 'intimate lovers'. Also the interesting thing is "RacheL" referred to me as 'brother' but I more so referred to her as 'mom' instead. Interesting that at the time, you could say 3 years [http://life-of-agent-k.blogspot.ca/search?q=*3*] ago before another Hollywood production came out, I had "two moms". And to "wrap this up" with as little words as possible, both "moms" were opposed to the idea of my beginning my theological/seminary/divinity studies. So many it's no coincidence when I was Google searching the meaning behind the bible's use of the word "hate" in Luke 14:26 (see also Matthew 10) it also lead me to do a comparison of the wording "not loved" in Genesis 29:31-33.
I think it came from this website, but it wasn't working for me just now: http://www.tektonics.org/gk/jesussayshate.php
Anyhow, so it ends up this "RacheL" now wants nothing to do with me and I wonder if it is somewhat a foreshadowing of the turmoil loving Christ ends up bringing into my own life regarding my relationship with my biological mother.
