Hope That Purifies

If you were walking down the sidewalk in downtown Houston and saw Jesus walking towards you from the opposite direction, what would you do? Honestly, what would you do?It seems there are three possible answers:

1. Because you are carrying shame about something you did, you duck into a store or an alleyway and hope he didn’t see you.
2. Run as fast as you can to embrace him!
3. We’ll talk about this one Sunday morning. 🙂


It’s number three that carries such amazing hope that it can change our lives dramatically. It’s a question of lavish love and a certain identity that this world cannot possibly give!
