In the Scriptures it says, "God is Love." I like that. I can mess up and God loves me. Get up and try again. So what if my spiritual life is a mediocrity. God loves me. I could run an evangelical mega church. But then I found out that it also says that "God is a consuming fire." Oops! That must be an old image and the love one is the new image, right? But what if I am wrong? What if mediocrity has its consequences? I hear people say "mediocrity" in their spiritual or recovery programs led to...you got it, a consuming fire experience. Personally, I am hedging my bets. The mega feel good church, well, feels good. But feelings can fool you as to what is real. I will ask for grace, and then daily effort, to raise my bar up from mediocrity.
