Form versus Function

Form versus Function

October 20, 2024 | By Magdalena Daley | In Faith

 

It’s time to walk on thin ice

Thin air even 

His words are the bridge under my feet 

His very word 

A rock 

Unshakable 

Anything else would be insanity

He’s the only safe place 

 

I want to walk on pillars of Fire 

There is no other way 

And the fire won’t burn my feet 

It will completely consume me

 

He’s called me to walk 

Where there is no way 

No Road 

No Bridge 

No Boat 

It’s totally supernatural 

That’s the only way 

 

There’s nothing normal about it He’s called me to an abnormal lifestyle – in the eyes of the world 

Because the norms of this world are rotten 

 

There’s a new normal 

It’s not formal 

It’s not the form of godliness that denies His power. (2 Tim 3:5)

 

We’re living in a time of decline of the formal living room 

Homeowners prioritize functional, flexible spaces and open floor plans

 

Form follows Function 

Form is visual appearance 

Function is the intended purpose something is designed to perform 

Do you have a functioning faith? 

 

Do not conform to the patterns of this world 

but be transformed by the renewing of your mind 

A total reformation of how you think (Rom 12:2) 

 

To be rather than to seem

Esse Quam Videri 

The motto of North Carolina, 1775
