The Lord demands…”See that JUSTICE is done, let MERCY be your first concern

HUMBLY obey your GOD.” Micah 6:8

I have been hanging out here for a while. Getting comfortable. Digging my toes in. Where have I been allowing myself to rest and get comfortable? I have been setting up camp on this line underneath my feet. It is the line that divides Christians from Radicals. That divides non obedience and obedience. The line that divides comfortable from the uncomfortable. I now have imprints on this line of my size 7 1/2 foot. Many people feel that if you are at least touching the line with your toes and a least recognizing and acknowledging the uncomfortable on the other side and depicting the images you are seeing while peering over the line in your small groups or your church service or in your conversations with friends..that it is okay and acceptable..but is it? Are we just suppose to shed light on these situations or are we suppose to be A LIGHT?

Did Jesus when he saw the crippled, the suffering,the hungry, the lost. Did he just simply discuss and shed light on these issues and sufferings in his sermons and parables. Or did he physically reach out and touch them?

It is time I do the same, it is time We do the same. That we no longer tip toe on that line that are culture has deemed acceptable. The we no longer just look at the uncomfortable as though we are watching Monday night television. We need to reach out and touch the uncomfortable. We need to not only pry out toes from this line we need to demolish this line that has been created.

When I look across the line that I have dug my toes deep into for far to long I see…

Children suffering with no parents

Women destroying their bodies because our culture tells them they will never be good enough or attractive enough

People starving while i just threw out half my meal in the trash because my stomach was full

Children being forced to be sexually active for money

Teenagers missing what it means to have an intimate relationship with their creator

Self destruction and mutilation

Sadness being covered by the things that are fleeting

I am guilty of tying a rope around my waist the is tied to a pole on the comfortable side that allows me to peer over to the uncomfortable with out completely falling into it. Instead of undoing the rope and prying my toes up from that line. Into the uncomfortable.

I am ready to pry my toes that I have dug deep deep into the line. What do you see on the other side of the line? Are you ready to reach out and touch those things. Are your toes tired of just digging into the line?
