I was where I was on this day, as strong and stable as I was, because of Him, because of His intervention

I not only wanted to throw away the creeds, the rules, and the interpretations, I wanted to throw away God, too!

it is best for me to come sit with God and see where He leads me with this mood of mine.

I was so angry, so disconnected from the promise, the hope, the empowerment that is supposed to be found in that book, yes, I threw it across the room.

I have no other answer than the one I ran headlong into — the cross. It looms for me still…

We deserve to “soar with wings like eagles,” and God is inviting us to do just that.
