So I just finished reading the book, The Shack, by WP Young. It was a fantastic, and quick read! I encourage it for anyone. It may be a little too "weird" for some people, but if you can get past some of the sci-fi elements, the truth that resonates from the words will penetrate your heart. Gauranteed.
I am still sifting through so much of what I read. What is stuck in my heart the most- is this idea of what it means to be in real communion (relationship) with Him. That all I need to do is receive His love... which is harder than it seems sometimes. Because I like to be independent. I like to do things right and do them well, but on my own. But let's be honest, I screw up so much of the time. But His love transforms, and brings total freedom. Freedom from performing, of being a "good" Christian. I get to walk in His love everyday... and such a weight is lifted!
Seriously- don't just take my word for it. Read the book!
