On My Worst Day: Cheesecake, Evil, Sandy Koufax, and Jesus
The Cure... for your Worst Day.
Many of us stumbled into Jesus and discovered the
one we’d been searching for all our lives, whether
we knew it or not. He told us everything was going to
be alright. He was a best friend who whispered that
he loved us to the exact extent his father loved him.
He saw everything we did yet refused to condemn us
ever. He was an incredibly powerful and supernatural
God who could actually change the outcome of
our horror into beauty.
Then enter shame, time, failure, disappointment,
and bad teaching. We learned to see him as disgusted
that we haven’t shaped up by now. We now
have a hard time reading the words of Jesus without
feeling he’s telling us we’re not enough and we
should be better, after all he’s done for us. And we
pull back, not as easily daring to trust him with us,
less willing to trust his plans, life and destiny for us.
What if that voice didn’t exist for us?
What if we could read his voice, hear his voice,
without an artificial, religious filter?
And what if we discovered he has been caring
about us, speaking to us, wooing us, entering into
our daily events, from the very start, long before
we took even a hint of interest in him?
On My Worst Day allows us to watch one person’s
journey to re-discovering that voice of Jesus. We
are allowed to imagine what Jesus might be saying
to us in our best and worst, our horrid disasters
and funniest moments. We will cry, laugh, and
find ourselves in every story. And we will walk away
changed; drenched with hope, and the best friend
we found at the start.
