I saw this tree in the picture above on one of my daily walks.
It made me think of the movie I had just watched, Johnny Depp in "Alice in Wonderland".
I love to get lost in my imagination sometimes! I walked around that trail imagining going down that rabbit hole in the tree to a whole new world full of adventure!
An adventure other than autism I might add.
I think that's why I so look forward to my walks lately...truly a time for me to escape the sometimes sharp claws of the autism-bandersnatch!
So many lines in that movie I could so relate to!
I think one of my favorites was the Mad Hatter talking to Alice:
"Have I gone mad?"
"I'm afraid so. You're entirely bonkers. But I tell you a secret, the best people are."
I think as a Christian sometimes, you have to be bonkers!
Let's see...
I believe in a God who spoke a world into creation in 7 days.
I believe him, though I've never seen him, felt him, or audibly heard from him.
I believe he exists in 3 forms, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
I believe he died and rose from the dead, for my sins, so that I might live with him for eternity.
Yes, I have gone mad!
Entirely bonkers!
Mad for my Savior!
A 'gone-bonkers' Jesus-freak!
And I've never felt more sane!
And like Alice --- I choose to believe in as many as 6 impossible things before breakfast.
It's how I survive an insane world.
Except for me, it's 7...
(I'm rebellious like that)
1. God's mercy can make my sins shrink.
2. God's word can make me grow.
3. The God I cannot see, touch, or audibly hear -- talks to me.
4. Through prayer any diseases, troubles, illnesses, injustices, - can disappear.
5. There is a place called heaven.
6. Satan is an evil jabberwocky.
7. I can slay him.
