Father’s Esker | If You Long For Home...

https://restorel66.wordpress.com/2015/07/30/my-fathers-esker

Words Full Of Rooms. If You Long For Home…. We live on an esker, you are happy to explain. If the tiller jumps a boulder in the garden. You plant peas as early as late April, eager. Once the muddy days of sugaring are gone,. Snow having quit even the woods by then. But ice takes longer. Running trails in spring at the reservoir. Where you and Mom used to go for walks,. I come across a rocky outcrop still iced over. And kneel beside the thawing, listen. Down among the roots and mosses,. Thanks so much for...

Violence | If You Long For Home...

https://restorel66.wordpress.com/in-quotations/violence

Words Full Of Rooms. If You Long For Home…. 1 A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week. 2 From the book “The Pursuit Of God” by A. W. Tozer. Tozer has described God’s requirement for Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac. He calls this the way of renunciation [of self and things] and explains that contemporary Christians must go this way if they would know God. He must be expelled from our soul by violence.

A Virtuous Violence | If You Long For Home...

https://restorel66.wordpress.com/the-virtue-of-violence

Words Full Of Rooms. If You Long For Home…. 1 The Violence Of The Cross. Late one night, over Dunkin Donuts and coffee, I made this offhanded comment about the crucifixion to my college roommate, At least he [Christ] didn’t have to hang there too long. My friend was indignant, What? John, let me tell you a little bit about a crucifixion! At that time, I had already trusted Christ’s cross-work on my behalf. I had placed my faith in the paradoxical power of the cross to remove the penalty and guilt of ...

Desire For Violence | If You Long For Home...

https://restorel66.wordpress.com/the-virtue-of-violence/the-desire-for-violence

Words Full Of Rooms. If You Long For Home…. 5 The Desire For Violence: It Can Hurt Us, Could It Help Us? Vi-o-lence (noun): intense, turbulent, or furious and often destructive action or force. None of this is surprising. Few, if any, have avoided violent victimization of some sort. Thus, we are understandably wary of the power of violence. We desire to protect ourselves and so we promise to never again expose ourselves to the brutality we experienced. In my opinion, our cultural over-fascination with vi...

Suffering | If You Long For Home...

https://restorel66.wordpress.com/in-quotations/this-world

Words Full Of Rooms. If You Long For Home…. This world is full of trouble, umfundisi. Who knows it better? I have never thought that a Christian would be free of suffering, umfundisi. For our Lord suffered. And I come to believe that he suffered, not to save us from suffering, but to teach us how to bear suffering. For he knew that there is no life without suffering.

The Violence Bearer | If You Long For Home...

https://restorel66.wordpress.com/the-virtue-of-violence/the-violence-bearer

Words Full Of Rooms. If You Long For Home…. 3 The Violence Bearer. After all, every violation of God’s good law is ultimately against God and his son Jesus (and the Holy Spirit). The historical figure of King David makes this very clear in his response to the prophet Nathan’s rebuke of him for killing Uriah and taking Uriah’s wife, Bathsheba. When confronted with his violence and covetousness David says, I have sinned against the Lord [God] (2 Samuel 12:13). He died from that brutalization. You are comme...
