The name of this book always bothered me. My Fight with God. Are we to fight with God?
When I hear the word fight, I think of conflict, violence, hatred, anger, and emotional outbursts.
Who in their right mind would fight against God and then publish a book about it, thinking it was a good thing?
Well, here we are, I’m doing a book study with a few people on the book, and we’re going through it chapter by chapter and it hit me.
Read the title again Mike. Who put the word “against” in that title?
It’s not there…
Now I get to ask, why did I choose to insert the word against in there? And why did it shape my mind to be in resistance to this book as if I were against it? How often am I positioning myself against something, instead of with it? How often am I in resistance against people, instead of being with them?
You see, the title is about his fight with God, not against. Reflecting on his life, thoughts, and experiences, and fighting them with God. And God already won…and so did Brian…so did you…so did I.
How often do you see something, hear something, or read something, and go right into resistance because your perspective created the wrong narrative? Perhaps that’s something you should fight WITH God about. As in get side by side with Him, and ask Him to help you fight it.
