i'm struggling and need a safe place to vent.
church people make me crazy.
absolutely crazy.
bandwagon riders...seats nice and warm...singing praise songs along the way...
all the while bump bump bumping over the carcasses of the wounded, broken and lost.
making arguments about what they don't understand.
hurling insults and demeaning remarks...
the lack of Christlike compassion breaks my heart.
then in church on Sunday morning they say 'God bless you'.
and i just want to throw up.
the fact of the matter is that we are all equal. we just are.
less self-righteousness...more Christ-likeness...less snobbish propriety...more genuine humility...
less judgement...more compassion...we all need grace. His grace.
I wonder how many times I fit in to the self-righteous category instead of the compassionate category...It is so easy to want judgment for others and grace for ourselves. I am thankful that we work out our salvation with fear and trembling...in His presence I realize that I am completely undone. I think I could say more but this is your blog, not mine :)
