this post is for people who believe in Jesus so if you don't...then you probably won't get it.
I'm curious as to what people think about emotion tying into God's presence. Do you ever feel like emotion is attached to God's presence? As if when you don't feel emotion...God's presence isn't there? I've been pondering this the past couple weeks and was just curious to see what other people think about it. If you are wondering what I am refering to as "emotion," I mean like the one song that you can always worship to, the one feeling you get when you are at a Christian summer camp...I guess it would be called a spiritual high. So if you have an opinon or thought leave a comment...

i really liked your entry. i think that even though we don't feel it he is still there. i think we don't feel it all the time because we have too much running around in our minds and worries and things to do and he is pushed out. but when we are signing to him...we are focused on him and then he can really get in our hearts and minds and consume us with him and that is when we have our emotional and "spiritual high". i think that is how it is at camp too..we know that this is a special time and place when god can "have his way with us" and we are prepared for that...where at church...it is the normal thing to do everyweek and so there we don't always focus on him because of things around us that distract us from letting him in. i had one of those "spiritual highs" this weekend actually. I went to IWU to registar for classes and stuff and i think i was over taken how much God's presence was there and how i felt it. God just amazed me and i found myself walking around campus crying because i was sooooo happy to be in a place where i knew this is where God wanted me and where i loved being there. i still am amazed by it. well, i hope you like my idea about it. im glad you brought it up...it got me thinking.
spiritual high, and closeness to God. idk, i know that God is always with us, He tells us that he will never leave me or forsake me, but there are those times of worship that seem like He is closer than other times. I can't help but think about the footprints in the sand. When we are looking over our lives, we look back and see one pair of footprints, and it was at those times that God was carrying us, so what if... during these "Spiritual highs" you were not being carried, but were actually walking right beside Jesus, walking as two best friends would, without a care in the world, friends who can talk about anything they want to, laughing and having a great time with your best friend,… when we are in these "spiritual highs", this is what i imagine is happening, on that "spiritual road". Just my thoughts.
