The things that don't change in this world? The fact that Love wins, Forgiveness works, Grace is free, and Peace is possible. These things have never changed and will never change. This is in the DNA of the Gospel. - Shane Hippshttp://shanehipps.blogspot.com/

Just stumbled across the below thought it was cool ...
yo yo WORD!!!
Its amazing how our writing reflects our thinking... i mean Obviously one will reflect the other but in a looking back sense I find it quite amusing to look at where my head was at about 5 months ago!!! The things that seemed so mind boggling...
Recently I have been grappling (funny word) with what the bible says about the Kingdom of God... I must admit before last week I havent been too much of a bible reader - sure I read the bible but I guess I have never really felt compelled to delve into details and further learn stuff and then take that and think about it and live it!!! so NEWS to the world... ROXIE has been reading her Bible!!! And its flippen AWESOME!!!
The main places I have been hanging out in Matthew and Luke and Ephesians... and there is all this stuff i didnt even know was there!!!! and stuff that Im realising has so much relevance to me and to this world today!!!
In particular reading about Jesus and the stories he told and the things he did... and I have read a whole lot of stuff and listend to a whole lot of stuff going on about how Jesus was counter Cultural and I have been like yea yea awesome he was cool and we have to be cool like that but its like the pin dropped!!!!! Jesus was the epitome of Counter Cultural and not just once, and not just infront of the Pharisees and Religious leaders but ALL THE TIME!!!
Its just been so exciting reading and finding more and more about Jesus and has just totally made me so in love with my King... THE KING!!!
(man i always feel dumb because this isnt really ground breaking just excitement from Roxie)
