Biblical record is rather consistent, though… God regularly
chooses to closely associate Himself with oddballs of every stripe and color.
Drunkards.
Dreamers.
Whores.
Liars.
Poets.
Foreigners.
Cheaters.
Adulterers.
Outsiders.
Murderers.
Yep. That’s the kind of
people God chooses for Himself. My mom would not approve!
He picks up for Himself the empty. The broken. The cracked pots. Some of them might perhaps, in some past life be the used-to-be somebodies who screwed up so badly that they became nobodies. Shattered shards. Who knew beyond the shadow of a doubt that for them there was no hope… no hope
for them at all…unless... unless God shows up and does His thing... that He, and He alone can do. .
The fearless fools who cast all caution to the wind; who
realize they truly have nothing to offer to God except the colossal mess they
made of their own lives.
The dumbos who have nothing to lose if they go all out
on a limb with the God nobody else around them can see or hear… the
madly-in-love fools blind and deaf to everything else except for that one Voice
amidst the cacophony of billions of others…that whispers…
Trust Me…Follow Me…Come to Me… Stay with Me…You didn’t
choose Me, but I chose you…
