Loosing The Sense Of Wonder
Imagine been born and the first face you see is God’s face! That’s was the sort of wonder Adam and Eve were born into. God even used to have regular times of physical meeting with them. Sadly, they lost their sense of wonder.
Scripture seems to tell the same story using different characters. It seems life after the Cross is no different.
Remember how it was to be saved at first, the wonder of salvation, the unparalleled passion and devotion, the simplicity of a sacred relationship. It would seem that the icy winds of drudgery have fanned cold the flames of wonder.
We seem to have a hold of God. He doesn’t throw curve-balls, He is plain old God. Worship is a good song; prayer is a well worded appeal laced with scripture verses, evangelism is low in returns, salvation is in 3 steps, growth comes from a regular bible diet.
When I loose my sense of wonder of God, I reduce the Cross to an event, the incarnation to a festivity and leave the resurrection as a historical fact.
God overawe me with who You are and all You are. Let me never stop at what I see but be enraptured by what I can’t fully understand.
