Day 658 – to be forgotten

I am a fan of reader-response in literary theory. So when I saw this quote, it made me think:

I am not sure if the quote is actually from Zinzendorf. Yet, for me, the last part spoke to me. I am willing to be forgotten!? Or, another way, “you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:3).

It is one thing to speak about “hiddenness” and think about the anonymity of the solitary life. But am I prepared for the consequences?

No easy answers. But a desire for Jesus alone! Anyway …
