because they aren't used to someone being
so blunt. That is true, here is something else
that is true- the damage to love that ruthless
evil has done, is pretty blunt, isn't it?
One of the very real problems in this war
is just understanding how it is to be fought.
We want to fight it in a way that makes sense
to us, only problem with that is, such a means
doesn't accomplish what you want, it has
the exact opposite effect. Want to know
why so many churches are struggling
it is this very thing- this reverse role of the
warfare of the spirit- we don't win this war
with means that make sense to us.
Because of that, you feel powerless in
this fight; and that is the supreme paradox
of trust and relationship to God, letting go
and letting God. Sounds easy, turns out
to be very hard. One kind gesture, one
kind moment, one simple essence of
taking yourself off the center of the life
and considering the other person. It
does make a difference, they do notice
it, it does matter. Yes it gets to the point
sometimes that you do wonder if such is
true, but you can believe, on the life
of the one who gave that life up, that
it is true- He didn't back down, when
they told Him, "If you're gonna keep
on tellin' us you're God- we're gonna
have to silence you." He knew then,
the road to the cross he was asking you
to take part in- do so with GLEE!
