God Is A Kooky God

Rome Is Burning, Jesus Says. Drop Your Fiddle, Change Your Life And Come To Me. Let Go Of The Good Days That Never Were - A Regimented Church You Never Attended, Traditional Virtues You Never Practiced, Legalistic Obedience You Never Honored, And A Sterile Orthodoxy You Never Accepted. The Old Era Is Done. The Decisive Inbreak Of God Has Happened.

By And Large, The Gospel Of Grace Is Neither Proclaimed, Understood, Nor Lived.

Jesus Says. "acknowledge And Accept Who I Want To Be For You: A Savior Of Boundless Compassion, Infinite Patience, Unbearable Forgiveness, And Love That Keeps No Score Of Wrongs. Quit Projecting Onto Me Your Own Feelings About Yourself. At This Moment Your Life Is A Bruised Reed And I Will Not Crush It, A Smoldering Wick And I Will Not Quench It. You Are In A Safe Place."

A Ragamuffin Knows He's Only A Beggar At The Door Of God's Mercy.

The Dominant Characteristic Of An Authentic Spiritual Life Is The Gratitude That Flows From Trust
