quoting Rob Bell from his book SEX GOD,"If you have ever given yourself to someone and found yourself waiting for their response, exposed and vunerable, left hanging in the balance, you know how God feels. Perhaps you've had your heart broken by somebody. You risked & extended & offered yourself, and they rejected & turned away & didn't return your love. There is something divine in your suffering. Somebody divine in your pain. You know how God feels, Who knows what it's like.
cont'd, Rob Bell book: The cross is God taking on flesh & blood and saying, 'Me too.' If God would risk we can too. The danger is that you'll decide it isn't worth it; why risk if it's going to hurt like this? The tragedy would be if you shut down, allowed a wall to be built around your heart, and something within you to die. The creator of the universe decided to meet people on their level, in their world, on their soil...This is the story of Jesus, of God's Love for people, & worth His risk.
cont'd, Rob Bell book: Jesus always chooses the path of love, not power. Inclusion, not exclusion. Connection & solidarity rather than rank & hierarchy. Touch rather than distance. Compassion rather than control... Naked. Bleeding. Vunerable. Thirsty. Mocked. Cursed. Rejected. Humble God, Who refuses to override our freedom, Who respects our power to decide whether to reciprocate that love. We can reject it, we can accept it, we can do what we choose. He still continues to love even w/no return.
