Though I said I wouldn’t mention this anymore, this little nugget of gold fell in my lap. I can’t help from sharing it. Oh, it’s good. Hopefully, it doesn’t feel like I’m beating a dead horse.
I got chills reading this post by Donald Miller… like Holy Spirit chills. You know when you read something that is so good, everything in you reaffirms it?
Here’s a clip:
But I’m not writing this blog to say Jim Wallis is right, though I believe he is. I’m writing this blog because I want to join Jim Wallis in praying for Glenn Beck. Even as I type this I feel a love for the man. It’s hard to keep your ratings up, and saying shocking things is a way to do so. But Glenn Beck is a child of God, a man who God loves, and while I disagree with him about whether the church should perform acts of justice, I don’t hate him for it. I want to cross this bridge with Jim Wallis, and love my enemy. It’s a much more peaceful way to live.
Glenn Beck is now saying that he is receiving hate mail from Christians, and is using the hate mail to fuel the controversy. But the truth is, I’ve never seen hate win in the end. Hate makes us guilty, and so creates a fight of guilty vs guilty. You just can’t keep beating an innocent man. Even if he dies, his death may change the world. In the end, love will win.
