Sublime

to beg you to step into whatever adventure God has for you, whatever the cost.

I want you to be challenged by God’s greatness and love. I want you to understand that the only sane response to His love is a wholehearted devotion to Jesus. And I want you to see that the crazy people in this world are those who experience God’s love and remain complacent, not those who let go of all they have and follow Him completely.

Our goal as people who follow Christ should be no less than becoming people who are madly in love with God.

We need to be awed by His unfathomable love for us. We need to be pushed away from the lukewarm equilibrium we keep coming back to. I still need these reminders, and the church does too.

Or why do we call it radical when, to Jesus, it is simply the way it is? The way it should be?

To that I would add, “Be careful not to turn others’ lives into the mold for your own.” Allow God to be as creative with you as He is with each of us.

The fact is, I need God to help me love God.
