God’s Opposites

I remain in awe and wonder at how radical You are; exploding any preconceived notion that limits or misrepresents You. The Tomb of Jesus comes to mind; a place of death and finality, yet in Your Hands it becomes a place of Life, New Beginnings, Hope and Safety. We can hide in there with You, upon the Mercy Seat of Your Sacrificial Blood, away from the lethal arrows of the enemy; fully accepted, redeemed and perfectly loved.

I think also of Matthew 7:21-23 which vehemently condemns some who claim Your Name but who You say, in fact, practice lawlessness. That which appears polished by our limited vision is blasted by the Truth that You are.

May we only settle into Your Truth and be willing to accept Your Opposites.
