Do You Ever Think About God?

January 21, 2011 in Uncategorized with 2 Comments

Do you ever think about God?

Is your understanding of Him skewed because you look at Him through the prism of your own problems, struggles, experiences or situations?

It makes a difference how we think about God.

In fact, it affects everything….

Everything we believe, feel and do.

Our society today seeks to turn God into an errand boy,

a good luck charm,

a user friendly cosmic superhero

who shows up just in time to put a stamp of approval on our plans and make them so.

Unfortunately, our human portraits of God hardly measure up to the truth about God.  And knowing and experiencing the truth about God is primary in living an adventurous and fruitful life.

So we will start at the very beginning…Who is God and how do I get to know Him, not just know about Him?

Maybe you’re curious and taking the first steps toward a life of faith,

Or restarting a journey that has been sidetracked or burnt out.

Or perhaps you just need refreshment and encouragement as you continue to persevere in your spiritual adventure.

God is waiting

Let’s meet Him together in a brand new way.

The Omniallinfinitude™ Blog Experience begins February 1, 2011.

Right here.

Join us then for Journey One – Highest Honors. We will start off with God’s attribute of Transcendence as well as the spiritual practices of Silence and Solitude – and a whole lot more.

Click here to see a more in depth description of the Elements included in each Journey.

Each Journey will be presented over a two month period through 16 blog posts, including information, assignments, links, and challenges. A more traditional format is also available through a downloadable PDF.  This will allow you to see the entire journey as you follow along with the blog. This PDF contains links to online resources and content.

One thing we’ve discovered along the way is that rubbing shoulders with people who know and trust God is contagious.  We invite you to join us online for a little shoulder rubbing……

and eventually, we will begin to see those very same problems, struggles, experiences or situations…..through the prism of GOD

….which makes all the difference in the world.

If you leave us your email, we will send you a reminder when a new blog is posted. If you would like to be on our Blog Email reminder list – send your email to mahelland@omniallinfinitude.com

God is the Ultimate Constant

January 19, 2011 in Uncategorized with 1 Comment

He is so good at what He does – it seems we can’t help but take HIM for granted. The extraordinary becomes so ordinary, we no longer take notice. We become blind to God and turn a blind eye to others.

Oftentimes we get stuck, waylaid along the way, and we stop and settle for a life of routine and hurry, instead of one filled with compassion and creativity.

We . are . bored . to . death.

It’s so easy to get in a rut…..Three things can keep us from moving on with God and taking our spiritual lives off autopilot.

  • We’re just tired and weary, always stressed, chasing after the wind, trying to have it all, we don’t even realize what’s happening to us.
  • We’re afraid, afraid of failing, of our own inadequacies, that we won’t measure up, so we stay where it’s safe.
  • Life is good, comfort is king – why upset the apple cart, why risk something new, why take a chance. We become complacent and stop paying attention.

We give up, pack it in, and our gaze wanders from God, – to anything else that might satisfy – but nothing ever does.  Our accessorized lives do not produce the lives of adventure we long for and that only God can provide.

We . need . to . refocus.

Omniallinfinitude™ takes us back to the very beginning, who is God and how do I get to know Him, not just know about Him?

It’s time to turn away from our preconceived assumptions about a God who is about our size and looks a lot like us –

to the wonder and reality of actually sharing our journey with a God who is beyond our imagination, yet as close as our heartbeat.

Yes, there will be struggle along the way – and it seems we have a million questions.

  • Can He be trusted?  What can I count on Him for?
  • Is there evidence that God is real?
  • Why is this so hard?  Why do we struggle so?  Why is there doubt, fear, anger depression, pain and suffering?
  • What is He waiting for?
  • Why doesn’t anyone care?  Why don’t we care?  Why doesn’t anyone care about us?
  • Why are we here? What happens when we die?

The answers are out there – to all these questions and more.

If you are ready to start, START OVER, or even just in need of a little TUNE UP along the way….

…. the Omniallinfinitude™ Blog Experience is for you.
