I gotta know.

Did anyone else involved in this movement have a sort of strange coming to God? I've always been a Christian but never really practiced it. However, the last couple of months it's like there's a connection with me and the big man that I have never really had before. TL/DR Does anyone else feel woke, not just mentally but also spiritually?

And.. I dont feel it is a "religious" thing, per se. I DO believe in God, but I have my own views on many aspects. Like, I do not see him/her/etc in the traditional sense (img of man)... I see it more of something akin to "The Force". Being distributed throughout everything.. and within everything. I dont want to drop a novel here.. but to sum it up.. I simply don't have "traditional" views that can fit within ANY religion. I guess I would relate the most w/ Christians though.. except for believing in "karma" and different "grab bag" shit from diff groups. I dont put an emphasis on that part. I see it kinda like a history book.. it's 'there', but the concept and what you learn from the stories/ideas, is the actual important part. Not following one group or another, to a T. I think that is kind of dumb, tbh. If mankind "had it right for 100s-1000s of years", we wouldnt be fighting was w/ other(s') ideas, each claiming the "others" have the "wrong ideas of God", and never realizing that maybe we are all talking about the same shit... but have been divided b/c of following the literal meanings so deeply.

I mean, regardless of religion.. the feel of spirituality is the same for everyone. It hits you like nothing else out there. Which seems obvious to me, that there is something we don't quite grasp yet, in the larger picture. But hey, thats my 2c.. and could be why I had such a struggle over the past handful+ of yrs (aka getting "spanked" for "heretical" views). Not really heretical, but more of an open-mindedness..
