FAITH

QUOTE

"Just because someone follows a certain faith does not necessarily mean it is the rigth path... perhaps no one religion contains all of the truth of the world. Perhaps every religion contains fragments of the truth and it is our responsibility to identify those fragments and piece them together."

-Brisingr, Christopher Paolini

faith and religion are two very hard topics to talk about. i realize this... i've just been searching for exactly waht i believe for the past month and it's quotes like this seem to confuse me even more.

how do we know what or who god really is? i think we all have something that we think he is, every person thinks of him differently. i believe that he morphs to whoever each person needs. so when each religion tries to force others to believe the say way as them it's wrong. one can not simply be told what to believe. we have to look into our hearts and see.

i just think the religious turmoil in my life needs to take a back burner. i will figure it all out in time and God will help me see him in the correct light. for now i only worry about the little things in my life and trying to make the best of it. God wants me to keep myself happy. and that's what i'm going to do. i think everyone should do what they can to make themselves happy.
