Nothing is more difficult than to face this, than deciding to look, squarely at profound convictions and to act upon them, even when doing so goes contrary to our desires. Yes, it must be done--deciding to abandon ourselves deliberately and completely to that which is so beautiful, justice, and to that which is so terrible, the reprisals, the disesteem of men.
We know it, perhaps we have even done it--
made the act, said the yes
What is that real? Is it real to expect that the world sees life as we do as an individual? Is it correct to think that God acknowledges our point of view as the ultimate...or is it more realistic to think we may just have to take on His. made the act, said the yes
Do you pay attention to your surroundings on the drive to work or walk to the train? Do you see your neighbors or just figures you pass as you go about your business? What hurts you each day that you may try to shut out?
Do we have His view of the least being the greatest? or serving each on as serving Him? or praying for those who persecute you aka those that may make life just a little more inconvenient or harder for you? Or maybe those who straight up lash out at us because of our faith.
Consider what it might look like to see through God's eyes -- this week step back and sacrifice what information feeds you and what you do through the day.
So what will feed you this week?? You're own agenda or God's?
