I’m sorry. I just have to say this.

As my Christian walk progesses, my life inside is changing.

We can disagree on Theology and the Bible. Many people refute it even though it is the perfect Word of God. We can disagree on Biblical meanings and imagery. There are all kinds of arguments. 

But as Jesus fills my life. I am changed. I cry when I hear His name for I am so unworthy and He is so giving.

As Jesus fills my life, I hate the very sins I used to love.

As Jesus fills my life, I am in sorrow for a lost and fallen world.

As Jesus fills my life, I NEVER want what was before Him. 

As far as Jesus in my life, there is no room for argument. I stand straight, planted on the Rock of Jesus and no one can argue that out of me.

I don’t have answers about suffering or war or injustice.  I can’t throw out detailed Theological concepts.

But I sure as heck can show what once was a broken life that is now healing. I can show what He has done to me.

My smallest hope is that the Light inside of me can shine brighter than any contrived argument against the One who died on an old, jagged tree. Whose blood atoned for your sin and mine. The One who came and changed the world completely.

If I am considered trouble for my beliefs, so be it. Jesus was hated by the religious and the non-believers. I stand in good company.
