...read this post and this post if you get the chance. They were quite awesome...
...oh and so was this one
I also want to give a shout out to my friend Jmac who keeps recording rap songs. He is a good friend and has been a big encouragement to me. I'm enjoying this song. Yes, it is rap. No, you don't have to like it. But I really liked this song. I really did...and rap doesn't regularly play through my speakers. The song's called "Victorious."
On my mind lately--
"We cannot earn what we have always had. What we can do is trust that what God keeps insisting is true about us is actually true...This reality, this forgiveness, this reconcilliation, is true for everybody. Paul insisted that when Jesus died on the cross, he was reconciling 'all things, in heaven and on earth to God'. All things, everywhere.
This reality then isn't something we make true about ourselves by doing something. It is already true. Our choice is to live in this new reality or cling to a reality of our own making."
