I Am A Follower, Right?

The only thing you can do in the back seat is follow, making the choice easy.

Bill Clinton (in yesterday’s headline) isn’t trying to solve all the world’s problems, just most of them. Jesus is trying to solve all the world’s problems. But He’s trying to solve them through ordinary people, not Presidents. At Church today, the Deacon talked about our role as follower.

He suggested that our laws shouldn’t drive our values, but that our values ought to drive our laws. Roe vs Wade on January 22, 1973 created a law that leaves me extraordinarily confused – a child dies for every abortion. Dies.

PS. It is January 22, 2012 as I write this. (it’s a “blog 90-days ahead experiment”), so it’s in the moment now, but on April 22 when we read this, we’ll race right on by it….and that was the Deacon’s point. A follower can not.

Are Hyper-Thinkers Worthy Of Forgiveness?

Everyone is worthy of forgiveness. Even me. Even you.

Are hyper-thinkers forgivable? I sure hope so. Otherwise, it’s gonna be a long day (week, month, year, life…).

PS. Bill Clinton’s good works allow us to forgive him right? What if it was a school teacher, or a bus driver, or a nurse that did what he did? Then what?

Forgiveness

What we accept by default becomes our standard.
Play by the rules? Seriously. Who's rules? Sounds fishy to me.

Forgiveness. How powerful is it? My human nature and abundant curiosity has me associate former President Clinton with the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal. For goodness sakes, the President and an intern. How is that remotely acceptable?

And yet, we have found the grace and mercy (or maybe we are just numb) to forgive the leader of the United States of America. It seems the good he did outweighed, and still outweighs, the bad. He’s a lucky man.
