Crazy Love

The Book: Crazy Love written by Francis Chan copywrite 2008

Tonight I sat at Starbucks and finished chapter 2 of this book. The first chapter was entitled "stop praying", and the second was entitled "you might not finish this chapter".

This book is really throwing me for a loop. The first chapter explains how marvelous and miraculous God really is. Something Francis says in the book is that God has always been. It confused me, and I don't really know why. I've heard it before. He's always been there. There's never ever been a moment when He wasn't around. It's simple to say, but for me, for some reason, it's hard to comprehend.

Then the second chapter talked about how we live our lives. Do you live your life for God? You might say yes. That's great, because the entire 2nd chapter is about how we could die at any moment. Will you be going to Heaven when you die? And do you know that for sure? If you were to die tomorrow, what would people say about you at your funeral? Would they say you were a man or a woman of God? Would they come to the funeral because they loved you, and they're happily celebrating your journey to be with Jesus? Or would they be there out of obligation to other friends and family? Would they know the real you? Or do they know the you that you pretend to be?

Think it over.

I love you.

Until next time.
