Hi, Richard D

Dewey & Paula here

Just had to put what we believe and how our burden of everyday life became so simple and easy for us - it was like fallin' off a log backwards.  I think you got it, Richard.  All the questions that we see people ask cannot possibly be answered by a flesh and blood human.  People give scriptures to prove what they believe is truth.  Bottom line is it's another parable.  And that's okay.  It keeps people searching for truth.  but no matter what the answer that anyone gives, it's only speculation of what it really means.  If you look at the answer real close you will notice it's another parable.  what makes me think that you're on the right track?  You say "I am at peace now".  I know the feeling.  It would appear by what I can see in your post that you have accepted the only thing that matters - FAITH and GRACE.  there's nothing else we have to go on.  Jesus said.

Once we understand faith and grace, the yoke becomes unburdonsome.  If he wanted us to know the meaning of all this, he would have just straight talked to us.  We believe that we as human beings are not allowed to understand the words of spirit while still living in this life.  All men are to die once and then we'll know.  For better or for worse.  Just my and Paula's opinion.

Goin' out a limb for Jesus - why?  cause that's where the fruit's at.

love y'ans

  Thank you for your response to this post. I understand your expression like being on a log and falling off backwards. It hit me like a ton of bricks today and such peace I experience. I felt the love of God.

Today I understood how secure I’m in God and that God really is in control of everything. God had me so occupied with seeing my sins it was killing me. Somehow I thought if only I could receive the right answer from my brothers and sisters I’ll be able to overcome my issues.

In the end God was showing me my need for him and once I really saw that, it happens to me. God was showing me I have no power over myself or my sins. I can not change a single hair on my head white or black or add one second to my life. I can do nothing outside of Christ.

And I would not have it any other way.  :)

                                In His Love. You’re brother and friend Richard.
