Dei Gratia: Jesus Is Not Your Girlfriend.
Romance is a wonderful thing. The long talks, smiles, interlocked hands and purposeless walks— all of these things make us feel alive. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been single for years or married for 60, we can all relate to Tom in 500 Days of Summer when he dances through the…

God is not a white man.
Pura Vida: Enoch, Walking with God and Paul Honor
Oh Enoch, you elusive man!
It seems so strange that the bible says so little about this guy yet he gets honoured in the Hebrews 11 hall of fame for faith. For those of you wondering who this man is- check out Gen 5:21-24…
“And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah; and Enoch…

Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don’t you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can’t think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you’re supposed to read? Do you think every thing you’re supposed to think? Buy what you’re told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you’re alive. If you don’t claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned. ”

Don’t you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Does this mean nothing to you? Can’t you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin? ”

…When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands…
…Your hands
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still…

from the book ‘crazy love’ by francis chan that im reading atm..
“When I am consumed by my problems – stressed about my life, my family, my job – I actually convey the belief that I think the circumstances are more important than God’s command to always rejoice.
Worry implies that we don’t quite trust that God is big enough, powerful enough, or loving enough to take care of what’s happening in our lives.
Stress says that the things we are involved in are important enough to merit our impatience, our lack of grace toward others, or our tight grip of control.
Basically, these two behaviours communicate that it’s okay to sin and not trust God because the stuff in my life is somehow exceptional. Both worry and stress reek of arrogance. They declare our tendency to forget that we’ve been forgiven, that our lives here are brief, that we are headed to a place where we won’t be lonely, afraid or hurt ever again, and that in the context of God’s strength, our problems are small, indeed.
Why are we so quick to forget God? Who do we think we are? I find myself returning to this lesson often. Even though I glimpse God’s holiness, I am still dumb enough to forget that life is all about God and not about me at all.”
STOP INSULTING GOD WITH YOUR STRESS.
wow. what a wake up call.
