Sometimes I wish I was offended or repulsed by things that don’t bother me
I wish the effects of my damaged past were not still so evident in the choices I freely make
Why do I sin?
What is sin anyway?
Is it really just bad words or lust?
Or is it hurting people? What is hurt?
Is it marginalizing people?
Putting and keeping them down?
What is fault? Who is fallen?
Where is hope? How can you hope?
Hope is in freedom
Freedom is in salvation
Answers are given
When questions are correctly asked
Peace is found in connection
Connection with the Father
Peace is not the lack of something
It is the presence of someone (Jesus)
Sometimes the thing keeping us from the promises and breakthrough of God
Is our devotion to hopelessness
Choose life, choose love
Choose freedom, choose peace
Awaken, walk the path
Find salvation
In God above
Chris, this is awesome. “Peace is not the lack of something. It is the presence of someone (Jesus)”
–Yes, yes, yes. Peace that passes all understanding. There’s nothing like it. There’s nothing like Him. There’s no one like Him.
It’s so difficult for humans to understand our nature, isn’t it? At least, for those that don’t have Jesus. What is sin? It’s tough to answer. We know that it’s disobedience toward God and acting outside of love. Lots to think about here, my friend.
I really enjoyed this one.

Glad you liked it:) I borrowed that line from my pastor (who was quoting someone who’s name i forget). There is such beautiful freedom in that little nugget of wisdom.
