This morning while on my morning run the song ‘Jesus Freak’ from DC Talk queued up. I love the last little bit of the song where he say
People think I’m strange,
does it make me a stranger,
my best friend was born in a manger
Everytime I hear that I think, I hope so.
What do you think? And that strange should not be in the ‘weirdo nut job Christian’ sort of way, but by a life that stands out and shines like a star amongst the crazy ways of human ambition and desire.
Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. (1 Corinthians 1:22-24 NIV)
