No More Drudgery

 

 

 

 

I once had a relationship with God based on my behavior and performance… oh the drudgery.

In recent days, I’ve discovered that my behavior never mattered to Him, it was never a factor in our relationship, at least on His end.

What drudgery, what lostness, what misery, what darkness and what a waste of time and effort I was engaged in.

Oh so grateful to be free from the self-inflicting, self condemning, judgmental and pompous BS…

I count all thing but loss for the excellency, the intimacy and the dance of life now available in union with Christ.

I’m mesmerized! I’m Loved without my even lifting a pinky!  How sweet it is!

No more drudgery! Be loved today!

Deliver Us from Obligation

What an honor to go where he leads, to hear that voice that comes with inspiration and to recognize where it came from. A few years ago, I would have thought the voice in my heart was the voice of laziness. I mean, of course, I don’t want to work..but I should right? WRONG! I do what my Father inspires me to do, and where He leads, I follow. It’s not the other way around even though He is faithful to follow me with His love no matter what.

Literal Inerrancy and Child Sacrifice?

For years a literal, inerrant approach to scripture had me reading this story and wrestling with the nature of God’s goodness instead of the nature of man’s fallen thinking.

As though a good god is a god who would partner with the idea of child sacrifice to, in some way, test his kids. As though Abrahams’s demonic belief in child sacrifice is meant to define what God is like instead of what Abraham was like; what a fallen mindset is like, what we, humanity, are capable of attributing to the nature of God…

Seed

Take your desires and plant them in your heart, meditate on them. You don’t have to know how it works, you just need to know that it super-naturally produces like a seed.

Joy Unspeakable

Religion is an evil task master! A distortion of truth! A lie! But His love is truly joy unspeakable and full of glory, full of glory, full of glory! And the half has never yet been told!

A Measureless Invitation

You see, control is a finite word in a finite language among thousands of finite languages. But Love is a Person, an infinite revelation.

Control will end, but Love has no beginning and no end, Love has always been and will always be.
