Rolling COT: Becoming Unoffendable

From the book “Unoffendable” by Brant Hansen; The author makes the case
that when we understand and accept that everything belongs to God (the
parking space you planned on parking in, the country and the political
parties, even our own children), absolutely EVERYTHING, then we no longer
have the right to be offended.

*”By becoming a Christian, we say we are giving our lives to Christ. If
that’s true – if we’ve given our lives to Christ – we’ve given it all.
Everything. And if that’s true, it includes – and boy, is this tough to say
as a dad – it includes our very children. They’re His. No one can take
anything, or anyone, from His grip. They can take from ours, but not His.
So watch them sleep, and thank God for them, and know that they’re on loan.
He loves them even more than you do. And whatever happens, He’s got the big
picture; we don’t. That’s trust.”*

Wow! That’s radical trust. What offends you? What are you holding on to so
tightly that you take offense when it is challenged. All of it is God’s.
