"It turns out God is not some predictable, domesticated, passionless deity preoccupied with our personal theology, morality and happiness - an unfortunate impression left by much modern spirituality. He is the untamed, ferocious lover of our souls." (AliveMagazine, Oct/Nov 04, p.23)
We seem to want to make God into a god who meets our needs and fits into our little boxes. When will we allow ourselves to see God as who he is - the magnificent creator of this immense universe and the astounding one who died on the cross for you and me?
One of the first steps to allowing God to be God is to resolve in our own hearts that we don't have to have it him all sorted out, to allow mystery to have a part in our journey of faith.
