Prodigal: These are for you!
Me: They look delicious! I wanted to share something that made me focus on Christ.
This is from the book The Cost of Discipleship by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
When a man really gives up trying to make something out of himself–a saint, or a converted sinner, or a churchman (a so-called clerical somebody), a righteous or unrighteous man….when in the fullness of tasks, questions, success or ill-hap, experiences and perplexities, a man throws himself into the arms of God….then he wakes with Christ in Gethsemane. That is faith, that is metanoia and it is thus that he becomes a man and Christian.
Psalms 37:2
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
