I saw God as an old man with a beard seated on His throne while looking over all of His creation. His face has wrinkles and He doesn’t smile. He is holding a record book on one hand and a pen on the other. He observes each of us and writes down every merit and demerit. And at the end of our time, He will decide based on the record book, if we will go to heaven or hell.
No wonder I had a hard time enjoying my relationship with God. I didn’t want to go to hell so I did the good stuff. I asked forgiveness for the bad things I did. But that was it. No intimacy. No openness (He knows me anyways). No fun.
I have news for you. I have changed my image of God. I now serve and worship a fun God. He is also merciful, generous, caring and most of all, He wears blue jeans. Whoa! I am not sure about the blue jeans part. But my point is God knows me because He became one of us. He is a regular guy (with extraordinary attributes) and He has invaded all the areas of my life. He just no longer sits on His throne checking on what’s the latest in booboo land. He now walks with me, laughs with me, cries with me and lives within me.
I am excited for this new series because this was how my image and relationship with God was revolutionized. Get ready to see and relate with God in a fresh, new and healthy way.
Enjoy the series, friends. (Pls bring more friends to the Feast. Let’s change the world one person at a time.)
Everlastingly at it,
Randy Borromeo
