I Don’t Call What I Practice “Religion”

Do you practice religion?

I believe in God and the Bible. I believe everything Jesus said and taught. I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins. And because of that, as long as I keep learning from my mistakes and change my course as needed, God will forgive me. God forgave me at the cross.

I believe we were all meant to learn lessons in this world. In the next life we will be made perfect. I don’t believe God holds grudges. I believe he’s always waiting for us to turn our lives around. And He never gives up on us.

I try to practice the words in 1 Corinthians 13 on a daily basis. That is what I try to live by. That is where I’ve set my standards. I try.

I believe where two or more are gathered it’s a church. So, even if there’s only two or three of us doing a Bible study we are in church.

I make alters for God. People may wonder what in the world would that be? Well, it depends on the occasion. Usually, it’s something I’m fasting or praying about.

My alters usually consist of a candle, incense, a crystal sphere or two, depending on what my attention is on at the time. I put notes on the alter, sometimes things I want to get rid of in my life or something I want to bring into my life. Sometimes it’s something as simple as a letter to God of gratitude.

I see God all around in nature. I hear Him in the trees. I walk barefoot in the grass. I feed the birds. I put my hands on trees for grounding and energy uplift. I pray, meditate and write.

I listen to a lot of meditation music when I’m in my bedroom. Sometimes I do yoga.

Sometimes I do absolutely nothing, but watch YouTube videos all day.

Yeah, I can be a real bum.

    Also, how many times did Jesus leave his disciples to be alone with God? Meditation is what I would call that!

    Many people forget that Christianity is an Eastern Religion [Middle East] and that while the historical church in the west was in decline, the East was thriving!
