Ah how about a topic that was recently brought up on teddekker.com. Fighting evil with evil..

One of the members made a thread saying that we should embrace the evil within in order to defeat evil. I believe this to be folly. once you embrace evil it is hard to come back. he gave a few point that did make sense, but to me they seemed more to be exposing evil rather than using evil. One of his examples was, showing women what happens to unborn children when they are aborted, showing them the horrors of doing such a deed. I agree, that is one way to help cut down on how much people do such a thing, but you don't have to embrace evil to let people know that. just lay out the simple facts.

There are many horrors in this world. Another point that another board member has was how people don't like to face their evils, or other people's evils. but accepting it is the first step to recovery. That doesn't mean you have to join it. To fight evil while being evil will only create a bigger evil. like fire. You play with fire and you will get burned. rather fight evil with good. Nothing says that if you are fighting with good that you can't still be honest with people. sometimes you just have to do what you feel is necessary, but ultimately once you lay out your facts and reasons why something is wrong, and why it goes against God and all you believe in, there is nothing left you can do except pray. People still have the right to make their own choices.

Once you get to a place where all you can do is pray it is hard. Especially for a person like me, I want to do more, all the time. But changing a person’s mind is never the true goal. My goals are to show everyone I meet how much God loves them. I try to do that by listening to them and helping out on anyway I can but no one really seems to come to me. Hopefully that means they are turning to God, but I know a few people who just sit and brood, brooding never gets you to a better place. I have done my share of brooding. What happens is you use all you energy wishing things where different rather than just accepting that you cannot have everything you want. Move on. God has a plan for everything, sometimes we cannot see what it is, this is where faith steps in. Without faith I would be hiding away like some sissy girl, for I have many fears, but God is BIGGER than my fears, he can defeat them in one breath. But just because he does not right when you want him to doesn’t mean he is not looking out for you. Everything has a reason. It is written that God will never leave nor forsake you, so why is it that we as humans feel like he abandons us?  I like to think it is because we have grown impatient with him and want him to do things our way, instead of his way.  So once again we need to surrender to his will. And let him do what he needs to in our life in order for his plan to be executed out in the fashion he desires.

It appears that my blog has gone in a completly diffrent direction. I do hope you were able to keep up.
