nogeens zuma se gewraakte uitsprake

Ek lees baie omdat ek graag wil leer. Ek wil leer omdat dit die manier is waarop ek nuwe insigte ontwikkel en nuwe insigte bring nuwe optrede en nuwe optrede verander my. Somtyds is die proses iets wat oor ‘n tydperk  gebeur. Somtyds gebeur dit vinnig. Nou het daar so iets in my lewe gebeur en ek skryf nou daaroor.

Ek volg nou al lank vir Mynhardt van Pletzen op twitter. Gister toe skryf hy hierdie “post” oor die Zuma-debakel. Ek gaan lees toe en besef dat ons ersntig na hom sal moet luister. Glo my, dit is nie vir my maklik nie.

“Practicing real world spirituality is almost always counter intuitive to our first instincts as humans.

Understanding our spiritual selves means being comfortable with the upside-down, inside-out world, as so beautifully articulated by Jesus in the Gospels. 

We are to be citizens in a kingdom where the first will be last, where you have to give away in order to receive, and where you have to die if you want to live.

One wrong way round value we often misinterpret, is the one that says we’ve got to stand up for our rights. Being a follower of Jesus identifies you with the Man who had no rights, and who gave up all his rights for the sake of others.
