Lord, Save Us From Your Followers

This morning as I was getting ready for my day, I had the Today Show playing in the living room. Matt Lauer was interviewing someone by the name of Dan Merchant about his book, Lord, Save Us From Your Followers.

He made the statement, “ People are more comfortable being ‘right’ than in doing the hard thing of loving others.”

I have found this to be tragically true! A cause of so much dissension, broken hearts, broken relationships…

Recalling my life’s history, I am sad to say that I see it as true in my own life more than I want to admit.

Lord, have mercy!

And please help me grow up more and more into the likeness of my Eternal Father and Brother and Spirit!

ps. anyone know of this book that can give me a review?

  1. Amen MB. That “being right” stuff can really be a burden. Lord make us more willing to be wrong and to be wronged without offense.

    BTW, nice photo on the banner!
