Most people say a script about God without having any idea what they are saying. The script is memorized through years of hearing it and IF they ever listen to it, they will see how damaging it is. One example of this is this, ask yourself or another Christian, “why did Jesus die?” Most will say, “To set me Free from sin, to give me victory over sin and Peace!” Then ask them, “then why do you still struggle with sin?” Hint: “The power of sin is the law!” – 1 Corinthians 15:56
“And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will pursue them. But I will gain glory for myself through Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD.” So the Israelites did this.” – Exodus 14:4
GOD IS GOD – even though you may not recognize His Full Power doesn’t mean it isn’t true and real!
GOD was never, is not and will never be caught by surprise, caught napping or caught on a bathroom break!
With this in mind – Rest and Relaxation is the moment to moment growth of Grace in your life as you recognize this to a greater and greater extent.
At your worst moment – God knew it was coming, allowed it to happen and IF you rest in that, His Peace will flood your soul! This means that at the greatest moment of bone-headedness He knew it was coming, allowed it to happen and was and is and will always Be in complete control and Divinely in Radical LOVE with you!
IF you can see God as The God of the bonehead your Peace level will begin to grow to a degree that you never thought possible! IF you cannot grasp this or begin to see it, He will always be a religion to you as a relationship with Him is based on seeing Him in a Love light and not the law light that the gods of non-boneheads exist in!
The path to Grace, being in Grace and growing up into a greater understanding of Grace starts by seeing a little of the unlimited nature of God, His Love for you and His Power in All things! Again my journey into this started by answering a few questions and I invite you to do the same at the link in the words below:
Thankyou so much for your daily inspirations. Today’s, in particular, has been a point of “anchor in the storm” for me for many years.
Peace
Thank you Andrew for reading and your encouragement!
If God is not the God of boneheads and beyond – I am in deep trouble!
Thank you again
Yes the minute we attempt to define Him beyond the understanding we are permitted to know we limit Him and He has no limit. I agree with your premise. Thanks for sharing. I am doing a study on knowing God exists, but the students cannot use the Bible to demonstrate or argue His existence.
Thank you for sharing Coach!
I appreciate your feedback!
What about “coneheads”? The pointy top guys. Are they discriminated against or do they occupy the first slot?
He Loved us while we were yet enemies and His Love is Eternal!
One area where most Christians make a huge mistake is in trying to rank sin – just because someone sins differently doesn’t make it any more or less than another.
