    Hey,

    Does anyone else feel like they just need something "bigger" in their lives? I am/was a christian, but am beginning to broaden my thoughts so to speak! Just dont know what it is I am looking for!!

    I am glad that you have reached that point in your life, especially if it has a lot of meaning for you.

    Peace and love

    I don't think anything can get bigger than God. It's good to broaden your horizens, and I think I understand what you mean about searching for something bigger, but then I started reading the Bible much more than I had been and once I began to really study it, I came to the conclusion that nothing could get bigger than God. Peace.

    I have read the bible and have tried to be more involved in christian things - just dont agree with a lot of it! I am tired of having to be someone that I am not just so that I fit in!

    But all is cool!! Will keep lokking for what it is that I am after!!

    Love and peace

    our understanding of god can....no one person or book could possible fully understand "god". to believe so i think one would only be limiting their own progress.

    The bible is a complicated thing. Best to master the basics first and keep practicing them your entire life, then maybe after a lifetime of practice we will be ready to move onto the next step. So lets work on the basics of christianity, love God and love your neighbor. Once I can get those right, I'll see what the next step is.

    Its as easy as you make it. Just always act with genuine love in every circumstance. To quote Ghandi, "There are no great acts, just small acts done with great love." It all comes down to the little things because every big thing is actually a whole lot of little things put together.

    Moonbeam, check out our http://coolove.org website for a broader perspective than Christianity alone can provide.

    How about an understanding? Enlightenment? I'm not sure either exists, but to strive for them is certainly noble.
