In Leonard Sweet's book, Jesus Drives Me Crazy, he suggests that to be a successful Christian puts you into conflict with society’s yardsticks for success. For example:
The way up in Christianity is down
The way in is out
The way first is last.
The way of success is service
The way of attainment is relinquishment
The way of strength is weakness
The way of security is vulnerability
The way of protection is forgiveness (even seventy times seventy)
The way of life is the way of death.
What do you think? More Sweet tomorrow.
Thanks for stopping by. Let me know if there are topics I should be spouting off on.
Remember that "Life is short. Break the rules. Forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love fully and laugh uncontrollably....."
