What's in a (display) name?

"CrazyLoverWannabe." Hmmm. Sounds a bit strange, perhaps kinky. What's this about?

At the risk of choosing a lengthy display name which may easily succumb to my short-term memory loss moments, I chose this name based on the title of a book which I've started to read, Crazy Love by Francis Chan. The gist of the book is that we Christians need to be so "crazy" in love with God that we actually live like we believe all that stuff the Bible teaches. Well, I've been a Christian (so-called) for about 44 years and am still frustrated by the petty sins I carry around and by my lack of faith.

I know there is more than I am living. I know that He wants to do more with me and through me (and to me) than I've allowed Him to do so far. So, call me a crazy lover "wannabe."

I haven't barely started the book, yet I highly recommend it. There's something, well, spiritual dripping from it. For reasons I can't explain, I literally cried as I was reading the preface.

I'm looking ahead to continued reading with fear and trembling. This could be the start of something "real."
