It simplifies life down into truly defining moments; it creates a constant intimacy with God that I think we all long for. I wish I knew how to consistently do it...havahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06369953248075213051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010663855553878264.post-63177360203549685752009-01-12T00:21:00.000-08:002009-01-12T00:21:00.000-08:00I think if we tried out the "right now" thing, we'...I think if we tried out the "right now" thing, we'd wonder why we stuck so long with the hard(er), less productive way...David Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07594244647778062784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010663855553878264.post-67281658591035107992009-01-11T23:15:00.000-08:002009-01-11T23:15:00.000-08:00My pastor said something similar a while ago, and ...My pastor said something similar a while ago, and it rings true now too when you say it. We do hide behind religion -- so much safer than actually having a relationship. People do it all the time in regular relationships; why wouldn't they (we) do it with God?<BR/><BR/>The problem with religiosity is that it all comes from you, and that's not how relationships work...and certainly not how God works.
