GETTING CAUGHT

Soren Kierkegaard said that most of us read the Bible the way a mouse tries to remove the cheese from the trap without getting caught.  Some of us have mastered that.  We read the story as though it were about someone else a long time ago; that way we don't get caught.  But if we see the Bible as the story of the triumph of God's grace, the story of God searching for us, then look out.  The story will come alive.  God will find us and we will know that we are found.
-- Maxie Dunnam in Living the Psalms
