Sometimes we run in life and realize we have lost a part of ourselves. Its the part that got killed by regular injections of responsibility and seriousness, with rules and regulations, with attempts at self-protection. We, who are spiritual, who lead others, who are concerned about the salvation of the world, often get consumed with the seriousness of our business. With the seriousness of the message. With the rules and regulations. With duty and with doing the right thing. And sometimes we find that our heart no longer responds to the things it once did. Something of life has gone out of us.
This is slow euthanasia induced by regular doses of disapproval. Sometimes we administer this to our own hearts because of our own shame, our own failures, our own too-high expectations. Or we wilt under the disapproving gaze of the God that we worship…and fear. It is a God that we cannot see clearly. And, like the Grinch, we find that our hearts have become two sizes too small.
Got has taught me, led me, continues to woo me into those moments of release and joy and freedom to be me. And this is one of the messages of the Father Heart, of his love. This is one of the gifts at the School of Ministry waiting for you.
