Thought for Today: Wednesday October 15
Many times, I sit on the porch of my home and watch clouds drifting by. And many times, I think of the clouds of discouragement and suffering that temporarily veil the sunlight of YHVH’s Love from us. Many people and even believers, live with a cloud hanging over their lives. The Bible has a great deal to say about clouds, for they sometimes symbolise the spiritual forces that obscure the Face of Elohiym. But He has not abandoned us. He is still there, and in faith we know we can trust His Promise: “I will never leave you, or forsake you” {Hebrews 13:5}
I’ve been reflecting a bit on how our community is growing and evolving. TTN was always meant to be a place where ministries could connect and people could build real friendships, meet others, and make meaningful connections.
Since I don’t monitor how people use the platform, I’d really love your help to get a better sense of how you experience TTN.
Do you use TTN mainly as a ministry platform (private/formal) or more as a space to meet others and share your beliefs?
Your feedback will help shape how we continue developing features and building a community that works for everyone.

The Bible is the Truth. But reading the Bible is not what people need.
It seems like it would be, but that’s exactly what gets most folks into the mess they find themselves mired in spiritually speaking.
We are the problem and reading the Bible is not going to fix us because while it contains the solutions, we cannot implement them.… We cannot implement them because we cannot understand them.
Most people have been trained from childhood to interpret what they read in the Bible through their own personal perspective. We have been taught doctrine, tradition, custom, and programmed to filter all we read in Scripture through those ideas.
What comes out the other side is one thing for one person and a different thing for another but the personal mind is the only filter.
Because the Bible is the source of authority, however, this lends credibility to biased beliefs when the private ideas were found in the Good Book and filtered through personal prejudice.
The Bible has the answers but first the reader must learn to ask honest questions. Till then the reading only spreads ruin.
