An excerpt from Brennan Manning's The Signature of Jesus, a book that has been challenging me to take my walk with Jesus deeper still.
Personally, I take great comfort in the life stories of the first disciples, their response was flawed by fear and hesitation. What they shared in common was dullness, an embarrassing inability to understand what Jesus was all about. Their track record was not good: They complained, they misunderstood, they quarreled, they wavered, they deserted, they denied. Christ's reaction to their broken inconsistent discipleship was one of unending love. The good news is that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today and forever.
