Drawing the line


What I am about to say is very general, but the more I'm aware of the world around me the more I am aware that we all need a Savior, a Prince of Peace, a King, an advocate, a Father. There are two sides to every battle, and where you draw the line on things like tolerance can be hazy at best. People are naturally sinful, we "All fall short of the glory of God." He however never falls short of His glory... so the question for every situation, every battle, every trial, every win every lose in this world is this, "Where is the Lord?" When our lines of communication, peace, love, hope - every thing we do in our own capacity to best live our lives utterly fails, then we look up for the line being drawn down to us. And this is where we draw the line, on a daily basis- our line- our connection to Christ is the only line that matters, the only thing that sustains, gives meaning, gives hope, and makes things like love, joy and peace a reality is Jesus. ...And suddenly I am not confused, and suddenly the things of earth grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.
