Chapter eleven; page 117, this sentence tinkled- "We want to back to being loved in the old familiar ways that allowed us to remain emotionally unchallenged and internally unchanged."
How true it is! We go to church, smile a lot, say nice things, work hard and being helpful and kind, have manners at our dinner table, social skills. That makes us proud of ourself, others are made happy of our behavior changed, and we declare it a success and to our contentment.
But is that all? "In spite of our recent breakthrough, the bewildering hand signals don't stop."
The true love of a Teacher is that He wants us free to venture back out into life's risky, loveless waters-taking His love with us as we go, to speak the language of His heart.
Press on to know the Lord! And you learn the vibrant language of His heart!
