Jesus wrecked my life
The title is a quote from Roe, a dear friend. It's how she describes her "coming to know Christ." And as of this week, I agree with her. If you really get to know (conocer-Spanish) the person of Jesus and just not a knowing of Jesus (saber-Spanish), he tends to wreck your life. The apirations and goals you wanted to pursue may not be as important anymore. The American dream may become a mere shadow. Jesus may call you to empthasize instead of sympathizing. You may be asked to walk down paths that personally you otherwise wouldn't choose. And unlike popular Christianity prescribes, giving monetarily won't be good enough. Pew-sitting Christianity will not point others toward the person of Jesus Christ. Action will be called for and hands will need to become dirty.....so, the question I leave you with is: what in your life is worth fighting for? Is justice worth fighting for?
