So today I walked into PIHOP during a soaking session and I was touched by the music in the background. It was calming and the words were beautiful.. And I thought to myself “I love how there’s beautiful music in Christianity..” I feel like many protestant churches are starting to embrace the arts once more. Hooray!

How about beautiful thinkers? Our intellectual capacity is a gift from God. And as Christians, we need to be a people who think well.

Our thought life should be consecrated to the Lord.. Can our thoughts be so well-ordered and specific that the Shekinah glory can rest in our thought life as well? I think so. May all our thoughts be on bended knee towards our God. I love people like G.K. Chesterton and Dallas Willard who cut away through subtle fallacies of the day through their profound thoughts. Heed the words of G.K. Chesterton and Dallas Willard:

“To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it.”
(G.K. Chesterton)

“No one need worry about our getting the best of God in some bargain with him, or that we might somehow succeed in using him for our purposes. Anyone who thinks this is a problem has seriously underestimated the intelligence and agility of our Father in the heavens. He will not be tricked or cheated.”
(Dallas Willard)
