Don’t you wish you really had the answer to that question? Why couldn’t God have made life easier? I mean, being God, He’s capable of doing anything He wants. It’s in His job description. And yet we search here and there in what seems like a futile attempt to find this elusive God. Is He out there, hidden somewhere in the black universe? Is he somehow within us. Both?
Who speaks for God?
Is the Pope the final authority? Is the pastor of a local church, the head of a denomination, or some other religious icon the voice of God? Aren’t we all in some way the voice of God? Don’t we all speak for God by who we ARE in God. No matter what I say, how I live my life says who God is in my life.
Mike Yaconelli was taken far too soon in life, even though he did get to live among us for 61 years. Taken out in a car accident in October of 2003, he explained much about this difficult journey to discover who God the Father is. In His book, Messy Spirituality, he said, “I just want to be remembered as a person who loved God, who served others more than he served himself, who was trying to grow in maturity and stability. I want to have more victories than defeats, yet here I am, almost 60, and I fail on a regular basis.”
Amen to that!
