Do You Know Someone?

I picked up this piece, after hearing about Oswald Chambers recently. It happened to be the reading for the day of 20th Septemeber, and although it's already the 21st here, I'm quite glad it's the 20th somewhere.

I find this view on being Christian quite radical, and rather atypical when compared to the usual stuff we were taught in Sunday School. Now, I'm no scholar on the Cathechism of the Catholic Church, but why do I feel like they should have taught me this instead?

Reading for 20th September, 2010

"The expression of Christian character is not good doing, but God-likeness. If the Spirit of God has transformed you within, you will exhibit Divine characteristics in your life, not good human characteristics. God's life in us expresses itself as God's life, not as human life trying to be godly. The secret of a Christian is that the supernatural is made natural in him by the grace of God, and the experience of this works out in the practical details of life, not in times of communion with God. When we come in contact with things that create a buzz, we find to our amazement that we have power to keep wonderfully poised in the centre of it all."


Do you know anyone like this?

If you do have someone like this or find someone like this, hold on tight. Trust me, he/she will be the best thing that ever walked into your life.
