Christianity, what is this word of which so many of us will lay claim to yet have no part of when THE ONE who paid the price ask us to simply follow him?
I am guilty at times of this very charge yet, over and over again God continues to take me back into his love and shelter me from the storm. Most times I feel as if I am a turtle who can leave his shell naked and defenceless yet for the dumbest reasons I continue to think I know better than the shell (Father) has provided for me. Am I bulletproof in my shell NO, am I safe from attacks NO, am I more able to move freely NO, yet when I am in my shell I am at the most comfortable place I can possiblie be. While the world outside throws all it can at me. Dinged, dented and sometimes even cracked yet, it will always be the place I call home.
All this to say, if we are to profess to be Christians and love our neighbors as are selves then why are we so selfish not to let them have a wonderful shell like ours with all the amenities and safety while at the same time letting them also know the boundaries of the shell.Oops I said it didn't I Boundaries
Why would anybody want to subject themselves to giving up all the things they enjoy right? well maybe like the frog in boiling water no one ever told or showed them how to get out. I haven't blogged in a while because God is really working on me inside and out but the thought of not sharing his Love makes me cry, especially for all of us who have the joy of feeling it. Share the word..Share Gods love... Share your shell... There is always room for one more I think God would love the idea of having to figure out where to put us all I really really do.. Love Justin
