Is it possible that one of the basic purposes of the church, the Body is to be a recipient reservoir of the overflowing, wasteful grace of God? Are we a rain barrel of love; a storage for the drought around us? Are we a sponge, which squeezed, yield the blood pressed from His broken body to a thirsty world? Are we a fruit whose crushing yields the nourishment needed to a famished rebellious people? Rain BarrelI wonder. 1 31 09
