REAWAKENING TO LIFE

We have forgotten how small we actually are in comparison to the ocean.

For those of you who have been following my blog through its ups and downs, you may remember a rather ugly story of how I left a church and the sticky web of experiences/beliefs I had to be cut out of. Well, I talked with a certain You-Know-Who today after he stopped to talk to me. The meat of our conversation didn’t surprise me, nor the predictable rhetoric-and-response that came out of both of our mouths. End result: no where, just more walls and conclusions for us both.

Instead of going off the deep end and recalling the conversation to post, I will say this: I refuse to respond to anger/manipulation with anger/manipulation. All roads, I hope, lead to repentance and reconciliation, whether we want them to or not. We have forgotten how small we are in comparison to God and the different callings he has for us. Our little wars with one another must end.

<Sigh>.
