OK – so Tam has come up with this great idea over at her blog where people leave a link to their best post of the week so anyone visiting her post can see her great thoughts and everyone else’s at the same time! ๐
i get way too little comment traffic for that to work well here but the general idea is still a pretty good one so i’m posting a link to what i think is a pretty darn good post that deservesย a wider audience or a re-read.
( i think you’ll be glad you went!) ๐
So go say hello to Rain and read ‘Not-in-vain‘.
Introduce yourself if you have not already had the opportunity.

Thanks for the link to Rain, and I’m adding it to my ‘favorites’ to revisit.
Concerning your comment about reading ‘The Shack’, I did finish it, and found it beneficial for understanding one person’s perspective/experience (though it actually ends up being the author’s more than the fictional main character’s — that’s a bit misleading).
All in all it was a worthwhile read I think, though definitely subject to scriptural scrutiny! But none of us ‘have it all down’ completely, do we? (short of heaven that is – 1 Cor. 13: 12 =).
Thanks again for the link and your insights regarding it too,

Hi D ๐
you’re most welcome some good thoughts over at Rain’s blog. ๐
Thank you for your comment on ‘The Shack’ i really do need to get my hands on a copy – i’ll bear your comment re Scripture in mind ( of course) ๐ and absolutely – none of us have it ‘perfect’ just yet
I suspect from the little i have gathered so far that you are most probably right, the Author seems to have chosen a work of fiction to put before a wider audience his own personal ‘experience’ or ‘awareness’ than he may have reached via a more ‘accurate’ testimony.
I imagine this was done so as to preach/testify to a large number who may not already be ‘converted’ rather than preaching to those more already converted?
I hope this was the motivation and not one of seeking a ‘profit’ ๐
Always nice to hear from you. Hope all 4 are full of health!
