WE LIVE IN A WONDERFUL TIME

Ozzie Smith hit a home run in the '82 National League Playoffs against the Dodgers. As the ball sailed over the right field wall, Jack Buck made the-now-famous call, Go crazy Folks! Go crazy!

That's how I feel living in the church. Who wouldn't want to be a part of the most exciting system in the world....His church? Well sadly, too many of His members wouldn't. They want to sigh and bemoan....and that's why this article.

We aren't called to live according to our tradition; but His. Ours has everything lined out. His has mystery. Ours has direction only as far as our answers will carry. His has a contour we can't fathom; we just follow.

As we faithfully have sung, God is an awesome God. His ways are still higher than ours. His mannerisms make it tough for us to relate. He never gets old and promises the same for us.

I want you to be highly encouraged, regardless of age or of tenure in the church, now is the greatest time to live....until tomorrow gets here. Then, it will ramp up even more excitingly!
