::: A NEW TITLE ? :::











I was reading a New York Times article and came across a quote that just may become my next subtitle...

"-belief in hope beyond reason."

I do not do well everyday as a follower of Christ, but He impacts me daily. I attempt at most times to effort my life toward this following...and at times, I roll over like Bear used to do and just want my tummy rubbed by the easy offers of this world. And at other times I throw stones as those who fail around me.

This whole thing is a mess.

But...it's a beautiful mess.

Where I may stub my toes in the world, my God is there to take my mind off of it and remind myself that...I am not an idiot.

I just am.

I just am being changed.

I just am becoming.

I just am experiencing new things.

I just am living in an abundant life.

I just am experiencing God at work all around me.

I just am another one, who is a part of the myriad of those who long for what Jesus spoke of and modeled...heaven on earth. Oh that majestic man who loved the ones who are hard to love and spoke sharply at the religious.

If only I could love the way he loves me. Without condition, without effort, without quitting.

After all, it makes no sense.
