Holy Discontent

I was recently talking a a friend about the work of the church....

He said the words to me,"Sounds like you have a 'Holy Discontentment'". I was really shocked by this statement.

What makes it a "Holy Discontentment"? What if it really were just a cynical, critical nature?

I'd like to think it is a holy discontentment....but most of the time I feel like it is just me being critical.

I'm not happy with the way church is done.I mean, I know that Christ is the answer to every question. He is the answer to what this world needs.

But, it seems the way we try to tell the world about Him just isn't working. It seems that something in the way we are telling them about Him just isn't working....they aren't listening...they don't care...why?

Do we not convey to the world that we really care about them? That is the conclusion that I tend to come to. We don't really care about them unless they measure up to what we believe they should be...or how they should be...

What if we told people that we loved them....regardless...and meant it? Would we see a diffference in our world?

I don't know the answers....heck, most of the time, I don't know the questions...but regardless....I am discontent...I don't know if it is holy or unholy...but I am...I guess I'll just have to wait and see to find out which adjective to use with it....
