Brent and I hosted a presidential party last election at our house. I made our living room look like a convention hall with banners, flags, balloons and other decorations. We hosted the telephone conference with Laura Bush and the president joined in at the end of the phone call. We had a cut out of the president which every one had their picture taken with. What does it mean to get a photo with something that is almost real?
I am not sure why I hang onto things that either aren't real or have the possibility of being real. Whether it is a thought, imagination or situation that may never happen, I find myself hanging on to guilt or even feeling that are not real. I know God doesn't put those thoughts in my head or encourage guilt. I am learning to let go of my fears and live for him. God is real and he is a real influence in my life if I allow him to be.
I Thesalonians 2:12-13
"so that you would walk in a manner worthy of the God who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
For this reason we also constantly thank God that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but for what it really is, the word of God, which also performs its work in you who believe. "
