Just another thought.
So much of our spirituality and church life is centred on 'our' ministry, all that 'we' do for God.
We sing and pray about our love for God and our worship of him.
The foundation of our faith is not the things that we do.
It is entirely about the things that He has done.
There is nothing notable about our love for God,
however His love for us is absolutely miraculous.
Somehow in the midst of our songs
we forget the image of Jesus kneeling at out dusty feet with a bowl and a towel.
Just another thought.

Them's good thoughts. It feels like death to us, doesn't it, to not be the originators of everything? And yet he is too irresistible for us ... we learn ... slowly :)
we so want to be the heroes in our own spiritual journey, winning the battles, working the miracles... silly us.
Wow - the depth and truth of this post is striking me in waves. "There is nothing notable about our love for God however His love for us is absolutely miraculous." - so TRUE! After all it is His love that holds the power that allows us to love in some small measure as He loves at all. Please keep sharing these God thoughts, Geoff. I desperately need to hear them.
