We throw open our doors to God and discover at the same moment He has thrown open His door to us. We find ourselves standing where we always hoped we might stand ~out in the wide open spaces of God's grace and glory, standing tall and shouting out praise. Romans 5:1-2. This is my view from my backyard. Isn't God an amazing artist? He takes my breathe away. Wide Open Spaces is the name of a book I haven't read yet. I plan on reading it after I finish The Ragamuffin Gospel. God has put me on a journey. He has told me to get out of my boat and start walking on the water. I read a quote the other day on a blog that made me nod my head and smile. It said, "I'd rather leave a few footprints in the water than my butt prints in the boat." Yep, me too. I am throwing my doors wide open and God is right there ready to meet me. And, you know what? He's always been there. Am I ready to receive all He has for me? No, I doubt it. But, I am in the process of truly understanding His amazing love and grace for not only me, but to everyone. Everyone! Every ragamuffin He created. What freedom to just love people for who they are, right where they are. How simple is that. Didn't Jesus tell us that we fullfill all the law when we love God with all our heart and our neighbor as ourselve? |
