| The thing about the bottom is that from there you have nothing left to lose. Nothing to fear. Nothing to hold onto. Filling up the sins of a people until the time of wrath is God’s justice. But it is also his patience, buying you back and saying, “Come out of her, my people.”I have had momentary Harry Potter/Luke Skywalker moments wherein I surmise that I might be the long lost, hidden, protected, soon-to-be-revealed son of the king of the universe who needs me to grow up early and join the war by living a totally unexpected and awesome life that compels me to set down my petty worries and take up the arms of vivid, integral life. Then I remember that because I am washed in the name of Jesus it is absolutely true. Till angel cry and trumpet sound, The Mad Christian |
