The Beautiful Letdown


I think Jon Foreman from Switchfoot sang in the song "The Beautiful Letdown", what this blog (Society's Elite) is all about.



"We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
The church of the dropouts
The losers, the sinners, the failures, and the fools
What a beautiful letdown
Are we salt in the wound?
Hey, let us sing one true tune"

"Hey, let us sing one true tune."

If I could do that, I'd die satisfied. Good post, bro.

Those lyrics are somethin' else, bro.

How many of us pause to realize the failures and the fools, etc among us are who Jesus embraces and desires friendship with?

Not so He can preach at or to us. not to 'lift us up' to some Polly Anna emotional existence to be based on fly-by-night experiences. No, Jesus just wants to hang.

There's a lot of folks who just want an ear, not judgment. Honesty, not elitism.

Someone just to listen to their hurt, wounds, anger, whatever--not someone on a mission to "fix" others.

good stuff.
