How unbearable crosses
Become unbreakable yokes
MIC Check
Today’s Most Important Challenge is…
- Lifting up the cross of Christ
- Even if it crushes me
Immanuel Approach Memo
I am… in a throne room.
God’s throne room
Is being overrun
By an enemy
Me
I am the enemy
God is still on the throne
Watching
Waiting
I look for Jesus.
He is seated at God’s right hand
I scream at Him
I scream at Them
“Why don’t you stop Them
Why won’t you stop Me”
Jesus smiles
He walks towards me
I wave my sword threateningly at Him
“Don’t come any closer
You don’t know what I’m capable of”
Jesus looks to My Father.
And winks
At Him
At me
And says
“You have forgotten
What I’m capable of”
And calmly
Draws closer to
Impale Himself on my sword
To be continued
Reflection
I feel…
- Awful
- Outmaneuvered
- Trapped
- Worthless
- Horrified
- Confused
- Disoriented
- A little bit Hopeful
Scripture
“Lord God All-Powerful of Israel, your throne is above the winged creatures. You created the heavens and the earth, and you alone rule the kingdoms of this world. Just look and see how Sennacherib has insulted you, the living God.”
Isaiah 37:16-17 CEV
