Why do "Christian's" say stupid things?

So, yea... its been a crazy couple of days. Our friends in Haiti have met with some unreal disaster. Now we have the "Pat Robertson's" of the world saying it was "God's judgement because of a pact with the devil". Well, the "pact" may be true, but the rest is a lie.

Why do "Christian's say stupid things?!"

If I am correct, the life of Jesus was about him loving people who hated God. He had a passion for people. Period. Its called "Grace". That word CANNOT be defined in theological terms.

The next time you or i come across someone that is different than us..... guess what, you are different than them.

We should never, NEVER, allow STUPID, American Christian talk of judgement come out of our mouth.

God IS Love and there is nothing that will change His mind about that.

Canvas

I spoke to a young man over the weekend who is full of it!!!! Potential.... he is full of a LOT of potential.
I told him that he was an empty canvas. Then God spoke to me.
I went on to tell him that God wants to create a master piece on him. He wants to work through him in a unique way.
God is not a "factory owner" He is a "creator". he does not create duplicates, He creates original artwork. He wants to flow through us with unique breaths of fresh air. He wants to create in us a pure heart that makes people feel His love, His joy, His expression, His touch.
Canvas.
Lots of color and even black and whites at times.
The wise king David prayed in psalm 51 Create in me a clean heart....." this was just after his "fall". God has always wanted to take fallen people (which happens to be the whole world) and Crete new and loving hearts.
Canvas.
That young man is going to be Gods "Magnum Opus" (God's Masterpiece)

Are you ready to be still long enough for God to do His artwork on and through you?
Just a Thought.....
