So yes, I've been pondering the prospects of being a Christian writer. I never thought that I would ever become a Christian writer, having been enamored with Nietzsche's philosophy so summed up in his words: "God is dead." But it happened. Like a whirlwind (the gospels describe the Holy Spirit as like the wind, mysterious, manifesting itself through a logic of its own), Christ took hold of my soul, and all I can think of is Christ, His words, actions, and especially His death on Calvary. I've thought about the plan of redemption, the reasoning behind it, and no matter how much I ponder its mysteries, I can't help but conclude that redemption is something that transcends all human understanding. It is to be contemplated for all eternity. And that, my friends, is my thought for today.
