What has come over us? What has us hypnotized? Why are we all so luke-warm? And WHY are we ok with it??

Why do we practice a "comfortable" level of submission to Christ? Why do we dare to consider ourselves "winning" the battle when we really haven't even stepped onto the field? We march around and around it, we make glorious speeches about it, but have we dirtied our boots?

I don't know if it's a problem in my own head, or if it really is the way I see it. I hope I'm just cynical and paranoid. Christianity has become less about the Spirit and more about...Christianity. We are mass-produced and sold like any self-help book. It's bland, tasteless, boring, sad. Maybe that is why this country is so backwards. We've lost so much taste that we're being spit out.

I want so much to be engulfed in flames- but not just me- the Church, too. More than myself I want the Church to start looking like the Body that it is. I mean, what is it right now? Where is it going, what is the Plan?

God, you know what you are doing, and I know you do have some kind of Plan. I'm impatient. I can't see a direction so I want to create one- that is Your job, not mine. I don't know what sort of destruction needs to go on before You build things up again. I'm clueless. Just point me in the right direction, Lord, and give me a shove. Your will be done as you see fit.
