I found this recent post by Craig Groeschel to be, well... unreasonable, and convicting.I bet you have heard this many times… "Be reasonable."
Truthfully, under many circumstances, "Be reasonable" is sound advice—but not always.
As Christians, there are times to be unreasonable.
- When you pray, you might ask God to do something most consider impossible or unreasonable. Pray unreasonable prayers.
- When you seek God, He might lead you to do something others consider undoable. Empowered by God, do unreasonable things.
- When you lead, some people might think you’re making unreasonable demand. Lead passionately and pull unreasonable results out of reasonable people.
Being unreasonable all the time would certainly be a mistake. But if you aren’t being unreasonable every now and then, you probably aren't being led by faith.
