First a public apology to those I have offended with my blog. If you are reading this and have no idea what I'm talking about, no worries. Those who have contacted me and are offended know who they are. I'm so sorry, I will try to be more sensitive in the future.
Today's thoughts on my faith center around this verse "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded." James 4:8. James is one of my favorite books. It may be my absolute favorite book in the New Testament. I have always found it interesting that James just barely made it into the Bible. And I personally am always thankful that it did. It talks tough to us about how we are to live our lives but it's definitely tough LOVE. I find the book so convicting and comforting at the same time.
Today I'm smack dab in the middle of that tough love that God pours out in James. It feels great and awful at the same time. However, most importantly it feels right. I'm right where He wants me to be (I think) so I am calm in the storm. Just going to stay on the boat while the waves crash around me until He tells me to get off. Amen.
