Christ’s entire life must supply the norm for the Christian and
for the life of the whole Church. One has to take every particu-
lar aspect of Christ’s life straight from his baptism to his resur-
rection and show correspondence. What else does it mean to be
a Christian? – s.k.
resolved: simply, honestly, somehow…. I will find a way to show correspondance to each particular aspect of his life, “big and small” what a picture. what a challenge. but as always “At least we can admit our weakness instead of reducing the requirement.”

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square hole. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. (1 John 4.4 ESV)

“Don’t bear trouble, use it. Take whatever happens- justice and injustice, pleasure and pain, compliment and criticism- take it up into the purpose of your life and make something out of it. Turn it into testimony.”
E. Stanley Jones, American missionary to India.
