I Try to Force God to Move Way Too Much
“Superstition and religion tell me that God responds to me. God is powerful, to be sure, but I am the real center of the universe, because God’s actions are predicated upon mine. Religion and superstition say that I can make God dance by being good, and that by being bad I can force Him from the floor. The gospel is something entirely different. The gospel says that God always leads. He is always the initiator, and his actions are always loving. The gospel says that we love because God loved us first.”
