Maybe so.
That’s how I’ve been seeing the dynamics between God and man more and more, as I attempt to progress in God’s grace.
The ultimate problem isn’t God, and it isn’t even the devil. Neither one of them can vary from what they back. It’s us. Will we make room for God’s grace. That sounds so free and easy until we realize that our prides are quite immense. We tell God don’t bother loving us, we love ourselves just fine. Which is why we have to learn in the school of hard knocks that no, our own love falls woefully flat.
