Prodigal: I know, God’s plans are great!

This is from the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan

When people gladly sacrifice their time or comfort or home, it is obvious that they trust in the promises of God. Why is it that the story of someone who has actually done what Jesus commands resonates deeply with us, but we then assume we could never do anything so radical or intense? Or why do we call it radical when, to Jesus, it is simply the way it is? The way it should be?

Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ

1: Corinthians 11:1
