ignorant I really am. You see, I love listening to my brilliant
professors speak high-tech "theologese. "
But I guess it's not just for me. I can't write straight with big,
heavy-duty words, quoting stuff from super-duper theologians.
That work to me is just a little bit less difficult than doing
advanced Trigonometry. But I recall one time when I took a shot at
it. I started pounding on the keyboard, "Some temporary approaches to
spirituality convey paradigmatic alterations from traditional
soteriology, rooted in modern Biblical hermeneutics. ."
Ugh...It was pure torture. (I offered my sufferings for the
conversion of the world. And I bet you'd do that, too, if I wrote
that way,hmm?)
But in all this, I have learned something quite glorious:
God is flexible.
He's made of rubber.
He can stoop down to hollow, lazy brains like mine.
And He can also meet the best and sharpest minds of big-time
theologians. And still win.
He can be wise to the wise.
And simple to the simple.
I've realized that God will meet us where we are.
He can be very tender to you if you need an embrace.
He can be firm to you if you need some spanking.
He can be terribly awesome when you need a miracle.
He can be painfully quiet when He wants you trust Him.
He will be what you need Him to be.
(Note: Not "want" Him to be. I said, "need" Him to be.)
Question: What do you really need right now?
Believe me.
He knows about it more than you do.
So let Him meet you where you are.
And let Him love you right there.
You Can Make Your Life Beautiful
