1. I spoke with my friend Dean on the phone earlier today and at the end of our conversation he gave me this brief and sage advice:
(paraphrased)
"There are essentially two things that we must remember as Christians: Truth and Love. We are able to love because we are under the grace of God."
So we must understand and remember grace. That we are under grace is the truth, and that we love is evidence of grace. In order to love we must share the truth: That Christ died the death we deserve, making us righteous and allowing us relationship with the God of the universe.
Something along those lines.
2. I skyped my dear friend Britt yesterday and she and I discussed what it is to live a righteous life. We reminded each other of the basics. She reminded me of the power of prayer and the importance of grace and truth. Britt is one of those people who knows how to look for truth. Watching her find it was something that strengthened my faith.
3. The Lord is putting people in my life here at Biola who are gifted in encouragement. I'll just leave that there.
Abrupt is so in. Didn't you hear?
