We can get so entrenched in religion and become so convinced that our own way is right that when God sends something supernatural our way we can't see or understand what He is using to correct us. Whom the Lord loves He chastens so that we may be a partaker of His holiness. If we are often reproved and ignore correction we will deviate from the power and plan of Jesus Christ. God forbid that we get to the point where we think we have arrived and that we settle into thinking there is no more we can do to serve God. God is calling us to open our heart so we can be an extension of His love and forgiveness here on Earth. Can a homeless man on a cardboard box challenge your religion?
