I sometimes think we all seem to think we want to know Fathers' will so much that we make his will fit our needs.

The only thing I really know about Fathers' will is that people need the Lord and relationship with Him,through Christ Alone.

How backwards is that?

Who is to decide what people need? What everyone needs? You? Your pastor? Your close circle of friends in your church? Horsepucky. You've completely missed the point of it all. Knowing the Fathers will is irrelevant...we'll never know everything about the Fathers will until we meet him we we die. The only thing we can do in the meantime is to try to live a godly, upright and just life, and show Christ's love towards all people. I don't know why people seem to complicate things and demean Christianity by making "winning souls to Christ" the end all of a Christian life; as if they are %100 sure of their standing with God. Its actually disgusting to see a group of well-intentioned people so blinded something so obvious. An innocent woman is being murdered, and all that is important is that "souls may have been won to Christ". Disgusting. I'm sure any non-Christian is on the edge of their seat wanting to become a part of such a group of loving people who value life so much.

I'm not lessoning the Death of Terri Shindler. It is a grave matter.

I have not missed the point I believe that Gods will for our lives is to live an Abundant life and Christ alone gives abundance."I came to give you live Abundant and Free" He said.

I can not live a "godly, upright and just life" on my own I need Christ in my life to do that. I believe others do as well. Without Christ I am nothing but a lost soul Damned eternally to Hell. With Christ Alone I am raised up and Secured to Heaven with Him eternally. My life here is not sinless even though through Christ I try to live a sinless life. Grace takes care of that even though I don't live a life of risk so "Grace takes care of it."

Father God decides what we need and NO one else. If you wanna know what you need read His Word.

Can we stop the Murder of this innocent and still obey the rule of Law?
Lawyers and Family are Trying very hard to right now.
We must render unto Cesar what is Cesar's be that his law or his taxes.

I value life so much that winning souls is my priority. "The one That winneth souls is wise"

There is a bigger picture here than the death(murder) of Terri Schlinder.
