I'm becoming more and more convinced that we need to think very carefully about our relationship with #anxiety

More and more voices describe our current situation as an 'epidemic' of anxiety problems and related disorders. Yet we continue to use anxiety as a motivator for so many areas of life. Increasingly so it seems.

As we do, I'm convinced we are pushing at the edges of our limitations, at risk of stretching ourselves beyond what our humanity itself can actually handle

Why is it so good to be limited creatures, made of an unlimited Creator?

Why should we not just accept but celebrate our limitations?

There are so many answers, but Easter Sunday got me thinking of one in particular... The resurrection wins eternal life for those who trust in Christ. Christ's resurrection body remains fully and gloriously human. In his resurrected humanity, he gives us a glimpse of redeemed humanity--still finite but without frustration.
