based on an e*mail conversation with a long time friend

CAUTION: a sensitive subject for some



Don't assume you know me

I shared an e*angel email
with a friend
I didn't really think it would
be a conversation after I
hit send

She wrote back I'm really
glad you're coming to
know Christ
I didn't think I understood
so I read the e*mail twice

I laughed and wrote back
never had a problem with
God
God knows what's in my heart
but for others to understand
is hard

It's the stone casting, Sunday
gossiping, "direct line" God is my
best friend ppl. that I always have
a problem with
because they always feel that
they have to show you God's
gift

I'm well aware of the gifts
and blessings God has
bestowed on me
and I will do right by them and
love God I don't need anyone
on this earth to tell me
who I am or should
be

See my friend is brainwashed
and she's pretty smart but
at times I don't understand her
The love for God is in your the
the Bible is a tool, a moral compass and
the stories and knowledge
are pretty much useless proporganda

You have to live it in your heart,
in your soul and in the things
that you do
other than that the knowledge
is useless unless you plan
on teaching and brainwashing
too.

She ended her e*mail saying she
hopes that I grow in the knowledge
of Christ
I didn't know quite what to write or to say
because if my knowledge grows and
there's no love then I'm God's hustler
instead of a follower in a way.

See born again Christians have a
flaw of judging the way others worship
I try not to judge anyone else
I'll share with you why I love God
and then you can judge for yourself

And after all is said and done
and you love and worship God still
don't judge the way I do
because I won't judge
and personally I don't care
a damn if you do so to hell
with you.
