If you follow Swerve, you know that Craig has called the staff to fast. During one of my stomach-growling, grumpy phases this afternoon, I was praying and pulled out The Message. I was praying that God would give me and all of the staff focus on this symbolic weekend. As always, God delivered:
"But remember, dear friends, that the apostles of our Master, Jesus Christ, told us this would happen: "In the last days there will be people who don't take these things seriously anymore. They'll treat them like a joke, and make a religion of their own whims and lusts." ... "But you, dear friends, carefully build yourselves up in this most holy faith by praying in the Holy Spirit, staying right at the center of God's love, keeping your arms open and outstretched, ready for the mercy of our Master, Jesus Christ. This is the unending life, the real life! Go easy on those who hesitate in the faith. Go after those who take the wrong way. Be tender with sinners, but not soft on sin." Jude 17-23
Focus delivered, now bring on the people!
