Last night, we were watching this Rob Bell Video, most of his stuff is really cool, although sometimes I feel it markets to the tooth and nail crowd more than I would personally prefer. But the video last night was probably the best thing I have ever seen him do. He spoke about forgiveness and how when we try to seek revenge or our own answers we essentially say that we try to do God's work and tell him that we don't trust him to right the wrongs or hurts put on us. Although I would tell anyone that, he said it in a way that I just knew it is something that he had struggled with, and it really hit me. Me and JP were talking the other day, and then with Adam the day before, about emotional self versus spiritual self, and how that when you mix the two, it can be somewhat dangerous at points. Emotional can only cover so much, and me-being the emotional drunkard that I am- needs that spiritual side to be there to get the better of me, because it is the better of me for the most part. What struck me the most about this, is that I tend to be the voice of reason for many, and that I don't take what I say to others and apply it to myself as much. It's funny how something so simple can also be so hard, and profound. Forgiveness can be freedom.
