Re: [Aspies dugout] New to the group

Calvary Chapel of Orlando
Attention:David Wittnebert

Orlando FL,32804
United States of America
Hi Angela

I am very happy that things worked out between you and your priest. The priest
should know as a true servant of God he must represent God and do what the Lord
wants him to do. If he tried to prevent you from attending church then he has
displeased God and misrepresented God. But God forgaves everyone and loves
everyone we all make mistakes and I will pray God will minster in his heart to
do his will and minster. God created us all and loves all of us and we are very
valued by him. Maybe this priest didn't understand or know how to deal with
autism. Alot of churches don't understand how. But God can overcome anything
because nothing is impossiable for God. Angela God values you and he will help
you. I hope that the church you are attending will represent God's true
character that's the important thing. Angela thank you for writing I hope one
day we can meet in person but onething I do know is we will meet in heaven when
we go home to God. If you wish to write to me you can e-mail me at
djw@... with out the chat room or for those who are interested in
christianity or my church address on top I would give you my home address but I
don't wish my home address to be posted on the chat rooms.
I wish you well.

In Christ
David Wittnebert

Hi David,

First of all, a big THANK YOU! I phoned my priest earlier, and told him
what you said to me, and I told him that I should not be prevented from
attending church because I have AS. At last he listened to me, and maybe
we have now worked something out...

All it means is that a lot of people agree with the way Jesus taught us
to behave with love, kindness, compassion etc., as opposed to anger,
hostility, violence, etc. But they don't feel able to believe in
something which goes beyond our existence here on earth. And so they
don't feel able to believe in God, or in Jesus rising from the dead, for
example.

And I thank you for your understanding, and for writing to me. I will
keep you in my prayers as well.

God bless you, and all best wishes,
Angela
