i've been asked a lot of questions and had much concern expressed by many of you, prompted by the last couple of posts. churning on the responses, it's occurred to me that there is one question conspicuously absent:
what does Jesus have to say?
it seems to me that hearing His voice is paramount right now... it is of the utmost import. i could be totally off here, but isn't the whole point of Christ's return, the atonement, the restoration, the salvation, the sanctification - all of it - isn't walking with God about ever-increasing dependence on Him? at the core of it, isn't that what faith truly is? i can't think of one instance in the Bible where we are instructed or encouraged to become independent from God - that's what got us in this mess to begin with, all the way back in the garden.
please know that i'm not disagreeing with any of you, or trying to pick a fight. this is a struggle in my mind, and i welcome any thoughts you are willing to share.
