Now" thoughts.... from page 102 - "Why do so few people genuinely find joy and pleasure in their relationship with God? Why do most people feel they have to either pay God back for all He's done (buy His love) or somehow keep making up for all their inadequacies and failures (prove their love)?" and on page 103 - "The answer lies in letting Him change you." and at the top of page 104 - "He wasn't talking about the future. He meant now, in this lifetime." Allowing God to continually change me is my task for here, now.</i> I am reading the book, Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God by Francis Chan.
