Common Place Religion September 20, 2019September 20, 2019 / Tim A. Please go to this blog written by Doug Eaton at The Fight of Faith. Here is one paragraph… The problem is that the way to find this glory and joy in God is to do the exact opposite of what you think you should do. It is like being submerged under a waterfall struggling for air. The most natural thing to do is to try to swim to the surface, but you will never get there because the crashing water will keep pushing you under. The right thing to do in that moment is swim down. It is only by swimming down that the water will spit you out down stream. This counter-intuitive nature is the same in the Christian life. If you are looking for true joy, he must increase, and we must decrease. Share this:FacebookTwitterEmailPrintLike this:Like Loading... Related
