Random Thoughts

I have random thoughts that would be easy to share with people. Really, I guess they are more contemplations/meditations/things mulling around in Amber's brain or just weird things that have no real value to them other than they are my thoughts. I am going to start sharing them a little more often and I am just going to title them....Random Thoughts.

I have been contemplating church lingo a lot lately and the importance of wording things not in church lingo or christianeese but accurately. For example, this year I could say that I am depending on others to provide my income this year as I am raising support. This would sound fine to a lot of people. However, this isn't a true statement. It represents a falsehood. Always, I am dependent on Him to support me. In the past, I have had a job that paid me money and that is how the Lord has provided. This year, the Lord is choosing to provide through others. Regardless, He is the source. He is the provider. He is the one I am dependent on. Not on my self and not on others.

I believe there are many time where we use christianeese that sounds good and that a lot of people understand what is meant, however, the wording doesn't always represent Truth and could be misleading. I wish I could think of another example, but my mind is blank. Often Truth is misrepresented in christianeese as all listeners don't always understand the Truth that is being spoken because the wording is off just enough to produce a false statement.

This makes so much more sense at other times as I have mulled this over in my head. Is anyone tracking with me on this? Do you get what I am saying? I might come back to this and try to more clearly communicate what I am talking about. 

Any thoughts? Feel free to leave a comment.
