Heart Jesus Heart Yourself I was talking with a good friend lately about how damaging religion, specifically Christianity and the church, can be on our selves. Loving myself was effectively preached out of me. I was taught and trained to despise myself. To not lean on my own understanding. To be suspicious of my own heart. And to not trust my gut... my feelings. I was worthy of death then punishment, in that order, and I should just be grateful God hasn't struck me down yet. But it's interesting to me that loving Jesus... (whether Jesus was real or not is immaterial because it was about him as a human being)... was the beginning of my deliverance away from all that and into a healthy self-love. Did religion teach you to hate yourself? Have you healed from that yet? Do you love yourself now?

The price of acceptance is too high if it costs who you are.

This summer, I think everybody should meet new peoples, have new experiences, and get out of their shells. (That last one is easier if you are a crustacean, okay. Just don't forget the sunscreen!)

As I walk through our neighborhood, I pray… and I also pick up the bullet casings. This is what I found as we walked about 3 miles… it doesn’t have to be this way. (… we will melt these down and cast them into hearts in honor of the lives lost to guns @rawtoolsinc). – at Philadelphia, PA

We’re following a God we can’t see, for a lifetime we can’t measure, to an eternity we can’t comprehend, because of grace we didn’t earn. Faith isn’t a bunch of facts.

Forgiveness is not pretending like it didn’t happen or it didn’t hurt. That’s lying. Forgiveness is the decision to release a debt regardless of how you feel.

Not sure who needs to hear this but sadness and celebration can be held together in tension. Easter season is a proclamation of a kingdom that is and is yet to come. Some days we feel the “not yet” more profoundly.

Morning munch Jesus said these encouraging words to not only the throngs of people who followed him, he says them to you and me this very moment: “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28 Wow invitation!!😇
