I recently followed my intuition or what I believe to be the direction of God to a local church. When I arrived, all the doors were locked; the two men inside watched me try to open all of the doors before letting me in.
"I'm here for guidance."
After looking at each other, they decide to let me in and talk to me. We introduced ourselves, and I explained that I kind of used my inner guidance to get me to the church. I felt like I needed to be there at that very moment. The older gentleman asked me what my idea of god was. When he stated his rebuttal about who he knew god to be, it sounded very condescending to my definition of god. He said that the living God isn't in everything and everyone like New Agers believe; underneath all of the semantics, I believe that he and I were saying the same thing.
My experience with spirituality differed from theirs; keeping that in mind, I decided to smile and nod even though deep down, I wanted to roll my eyes. I've never been keen on the strict and sometimes hypocritical way of the church; All I know if that I believe in Jesus and I know that God is love and he loves all. I accepted Jesus into my heart again after being distant and hesitant to claim that the amazing events that had been happening to me were because of him and his father. I'm still learning, but I really don't see a difference in New Age beliefs and Christian beliefs. I don't believe that there is more than one god, but different interpretations of the same source of divine energy.
