What would you do if...

Your comment made me think of some things  Ray said. I'm pretty sure he talked about how those who believed in a hell of everlasting torture would treat people inhumanely and just figure that God tortures his enemies so why wouldn't we? That's not a quote but it's the meaning I remember.  Because God loves extravagantly, selflessly, without limits, so should we. This is the great gift in His revelation to us that He truly is Good and we can trust Him with everything because He is worthy of that trust.
  The apostle Paul had no family that I know of- especially after his conversion. And his career was making tents. But look what he did! When we are weak, He is strong. You will find your place Moises because God has already made a way for you.

Moises I don't know if you've ever seen the movie 'into the wild' but if I were in your shoes I'd probably do something like what the main character did in that movie.. Kid came from a well-to-do family and after he graduates college he gives away all his money and basically travels across country as a wanderer meeting different folks, living off the kindness of strangers and working an odd job here and there just to earn enough money to continue the journey. Eventually ends up alone in the Alaskan wilderness and dies there. Of course I wouldn't want to die alone or in the fashion that he died.

You have a relationship with and a deep knowledge of God, no aspirations for money or fame or family and basic skills to survive.. I would go on a journey and learn more about myself by meeting new people and spending time alone in new situations.

Hi Largeli.

I saw that movie. I thought the guy was kind of naive. But, whatever... Actually I have already go trough kind of similar experiences (except for the last part of the movie). Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

I would love to share some of my last weeks of traveling (Right now I find my self visiting Ashland Oregon for a couple days), but I have no time right now to give justice to my story. Maybe I will, eventually when I have more time on my hands...
