I just finished reading Crazy Love by Francis Chan, and it was one of the better books that I have read in a while. The love and grace of God is incomprehensible, and our disobedience and apathy towards Him is sad, but we are all guilty of it.

I've been getting frustrated lately, mostly by people, and loving them has been quite a challenge. The truth is, on my own I don't know how to love people the way they need to be loved. I don't know how to show kindness at the (extremely) idiotic statements made by some, but I am called to do so. It has taken me some time to realize that it is only through a changing of my own heart that I'll be able to do so, and that it is God who will do just that.
