I see a lot of it among the Christian community. It is proudness of being Christian gone boastful of eternal life gone arrogant of being chosen, and it’s definitely not the Christian I want to be. These ego-driven little golden lambs run around clothed in God’s seal, yet, flaunting, they choose to show it off at the edge of God’s protection, just out of any grasps. They dangle their most holy seal, like a trinket on a chain, just out of reach of those they think are wolves and seem delight in that they are “Special”. It’s a childish game of we win, you lose, what you gonna do about it? Shameful.
Are you feeling so proud that you do not recognize the little muddyed sheep among the ferocious worldly wolves struggling towards you looking for your help? Do you taunt them? Do you dangle Christ’s love from their fingertips?
Shan’t we ask Christ if they may come into our pasture also? They are sheep. And Christ is everyone’s shepherd.
That’s what love is all about.
