People Have A View Of A God

I Live With The Understanding That Truth Is Bigger Than Any Religion And The World Is God's And Everything In It.

You Can Be Very Religious And Invoke The Name Of God And Be Able To Quote Lots Of Verses And Be Well Versed In Complicated Theological Systems And Yet Not Be A Person Who Sees. It’s One Thing To Sing About God And Recite Quotes About God And Invoke God’s Name; It’s Another Be Aware Of The Presence In Every Taste, Touch, Sound, And Embrace. With Jesus, What We See Again And Again Is That It’s Never Just A Person, Or Just A Meal, Or Just An Event, Because There’s Always More Going On Just Below The Surface.

This Is Why For Thousands Of Years Christians Have Found The Cross To Be So Central To Life. It Speaks To Us Of God's Suffering, God's Pain, God's Broken Heart. It's God Making The First Move And Then Waiting For Our Response.

The Life That You Want Begins The Moment You Embrace The Life You Have Because All Of It Is A Miracle.

When Someone Sets Out To Be Controversial Or Provocative Or Shocking As An End In Itself, I Don't Think That's A Noble Goal.
