This is a book that talks about injustice, and one of the commenters said something that hits the nail on the head so hard it just about shatters it (thank you Blane Young):
Anne said: “I shove out of my heart the very things that make up the heart of God.”Change must occur within me first; I have to give in order for others to receive...
I am guilty of this same offense and to be honest, I think my heart gets set on ministry instead of God’s heart for people.
What the difference, one may ask?
Well, one includes lights, campuses, motion videos, vans, and rock music.
The other one involves concepts such as love and compassion, matched with life-changing actions. The part that scares me away most of the time is that the life change must occur within me first. I have to give in order for others to receive, and having less, isn’t usually a ministry goal.
