Starting with a bench and water currents but it isn't really about those things...But instead about something else that we aren't seeing much nowadays - a prophetic and powerful word about Christians and politics...
What is the benchmark for Christianity? (Do you see what I did there? "Bench"mark?) Is it comparative? When are we safe from ourselves? I'm thinking deeply about committing to a secular, contemplative way of life and I'm asking these kinds of questions of myself. It's difficult living a religious/spiritual life in full view. There are dangers. Maintaining a healthy sense of self is always a struggle, but I don't like the idea of other people watching me maintain. Sometimes, I lose my balance and it ain't pretty.
Sure is food for thought. Thanks for sharing!
Spot on. We used to be more civilized and understanding of others.
