A Little bit of Reflection

“The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.” Frederick Buechner

“Speak in your own voice and speak about things that you have in some sense witnessed, not just things you read about or have been taught about in seminary. To talk about the resurrection, think about those moments where in some way you have been resurrected.” – Frederick Buechner

My favorite Rich Mullins song.

If you’ve ever known the love of God, you know it’s nothing but reckless and it’s nothing but raging. Sometimes it hurts to be loved, and if it doesn’t hurt it’s probably not love, may be infatuation. I think a lot of American people are infatuated with God, but we don’t really love Him, and they don’t really let Him love them. Being loved by God is one of the most painful things in the world, it’s also the only thing that can bring us salvation and it’s like everything else that is really wonderful, there’s a little bit of pain in it, little bit of hurt.
Rich Mullins
Loneliness hurts. … Maybe that when God calls us it hurts. When he calls us it feels like a pain…. Rich Mullins
Worth a listen.

Thank you for visiting. Be Blessed!
