I write all that is below because I feel I should share a glimpse, and that is all it is, of what I have come home from. I share it with you not to make you jealous, but to create within you a longing for the things of God. We are too content. Thats what was revealed to me this morning at church, I called people to hunger, thirst, longing, to want to chase after Him, to see His words bear fruit. Read what God has said He will do, read what Jesus said about Himself and his kingdom and our authority, read it and then declare it. We are living with the bar set too low, we are far too satisfied and content with where we are and the tiny things we are asking for. How big is your God? I ask again, how big is your God? Sit under His waterfall, ask for Him to fill you so that you might be brimming, that you might be poured out to everyone you come into contact with. Stop being comfortable and satisfied. Divine discontent. I dare you to pray for it ;)
I have just clicked. It's about love. JUST about love, not about figuring it out, or trying to measure and judge and wonder and balance and get people sussed. It's about loving them in their frailty, in their fullness, in who they are not what they are walking under the burden of. It's about doing the ONLY thing God commanded us to do and letting HIM do the rest. It's about learning to LOVE WELL, extending a grace and an unconditional love that is so radical and so beautiful and so safe and accepting that it creates a place for God to break through with His love in the places that need healing. It's about love love love. May religion, theology, judgement, cynicism, logic and all else die in me and leave only one prayer...Jesus...teach me how to love well.
