Life as a JesusFreak: Life is good

The Vision - Pete Greig

The Vision?
The Vision is Jesus; obsessively, dangerously, undeniably Jesus.
The Vision is an army of young people.
The Vision is holiness that hurts the eyes. It makes children laugh and adults angry. It gave up the game of minimum integrity long ago, to reach for the stars.
This is an army that will lay down its life for the cause.
And the army is discipl[in]ed, young people who beat their bodies into submission.
And the generation prays like a dieing man, with groans beyond talking, with warrior cries, sulphuric tears and with great barrow loads of laughter!
What ever it takes they will give: breaking the rules, shaking mediocrity from its cosy little hide. Laying down their rights and their precious little wrongs, laughing at labels, fasting essentials.
With blood and sweat and many tears,
With sleepless nights and fruitless days,
They pray as if it all depends on God
And live as if it all depends on them.
And my feeble, whispered, faithless prayer invokes a thunderous, resounding, bone-shaking great 'Amen!' from Christ himself - the ultimate winner - Guaranteed.
