Your Life is a Sentence

If you could say only one thing to God what would it be? If you knew that in your lifetime only this next statement would make it through the switchboard, what would you say? Would you ask about some great mystery? Would you ask for a favor? Would you dare to give Him some advice? Or would you ask anything at all.

I think its funny and somewhat hope giving that the most conservative traditional Christians I know and the most radically minded, for all their differences, seem to agree that a Christian is to be a worshiping being. Perhaps that’s the essential difference between a Christian and the world. We are strangers to it because we worship.

I worry that the vast middle ground of evangelical Christianity has lost this worship awareness and built in its place something more like a monument to ourselves. But that is another story for another day.

So. You have this one moment of true connection with the Creator. Would you ask, would you advise, or would you worship? Would you find that for you, for your soul in its present place, there could really only be…worship?

Take Care
Aaron
