Believing vs. Seeing

A friend sent this to me yesterday. Amazing. Try it.
If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating pink dot, you will only see one color, pink.
However if you stare at the black”+” in the center, the moving dot turns to green.
Now, concentrate on the black “+” in the center of the picture. After a short period, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see a green dot rotating.
It’s amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don’t disappear. This should be proof enough, we don’t always see what we think we see.

Wow, normally I don’t do well with optical phenoms like these due to the coke-bottle lenses that I have worn since the age of three. But this illusion rocked out for me immediately!

Hey Jeff… Things like this get in my head and mess me up for days. I like your Blog. Also, I have been on Journey’s site and came across a quote and now I cant find it… I may need your help with that.

Linda Lou, What was the quote? Maybe I can help you out…?

Please forgive the paraphrase….”Church starts at home” something along those lines. My life has went under a major CHANGE. I would love to share with all the details sometime. Here is a summary. Alan got SAVED. I mean the God of the Bible saved him! A year later… I realized I didn’t have that same God. I got saved October 9th, 2007. God has changed us and now we live 100% for Him. We strive daily to live a holy and righteous life. We are very burdened for the lost friends and family members that just have religion and not true “life-changing” salvation. Good to hear from you Jeff!

“Home is where the heart is…. and where the church should be.”
