Tonight at church there was a dramatic speech sort of thing which talked about the different postures of Jesus. They explained that he tired, he knelt, he wept. I love hearing about Jesus's emotions because it lights something in me, something that says, "I am made to be alive."
It ended with the sentence, "jesus grant me the patience and sometimes harsh words you gave to the teachers of the law, grant me the grace and peace you gave the adulterer, and if or when i sell or speak of a shallow, self-seeking, uninspiring gospel, turn over my kitchen table. "
That's been ringing in my ears all night. I'm a goody-two-shoes Christian, most of the time only because it's convenient. God, turn over my kitchen table. Disorder my life.
