Observational mishaps

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

- Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto from the film "Tora, Tora, Tora".

I have been taking much stock of my life lately, and I've come to realize that in many ways, my soul has been lulled to sleep by the mediocrity and banality of the typical american life. That I, along with many around me, have given themselves over to the American dream, the persuit of riches, happiness and comfort, never really giving much consideration to the glories of God, and if they did give thought to it, it was in confusion on how to best bring those glories to light. My soul has been sleeping for some time now, hibernating if you will, and a restlessness has begun in my heart, a stirring to action.

Imagine if the American church suddenly woke up. Imagine if all of the pushing to be the nice, comfortable, politically correct church suddenly was replaced with a passion to see God glorified at all costs. Imagine if each individual in America dropped to their knees in repentance for their laziness, got up, took up their crosses and put down the remote? Imagine how this country would change and the gospel would go out. I, for one, am excited for this to begin in my own life.
