I saw it in someone's eyes this week....
"You're a Pastor?"
I watched as fear overtook her face. Then I realized I was afraid too....but my fear was different.
Her fear was conviction. Fear that I could see deep into her soul and would judge her for what she's done wrong in her life. My fear was that I would fail to show her the Love of Christ, that she would bring a question to the table that I could not answer and I would drive her far from the Loving Arms of the Father God.
"Yes, I am...that's crazy, huh?"
"As long as you don't shove that **** down my throat, I don't care."
Shove it? Never. Live it out in front of you? I surely hope so.
"They will know that you are my disciples when you Love One Another..."
