what's running through my mind...

Things that have been running through my mind:

- Faith isn’t faith when it’s easy?

- A handicapped adult honestly worshiping holds my awe more than all the lights, sound and talent a stage can produce.

- Leadership means leading yourself first.

- Waiting on God is easier to say than do

- How much time will I give God before I rush in and try to fix?

- Finishing well is more important then just finishing

- I love people, now how can I get paid to do that?

- Do I want to know God’s will more than I want to know God?

What have you been thinking about?

-That sometimes life would be either without faith.
-How frustrating it is that some folks think that if we cannot prove there is a God then there must be no God and how difficult it is for me to communicate clearly with those folks.
-How did the Muppet Babies exist at the same time as the adult muppets?

i've been thinking about what i want to do with my life 5 years from now, even a year from now!! I surely don't want to be slicing meat for the old folks!! lol thats what i'm doing now. i agree with you on, "waiting on God is easier to say than do!" i get impatient when i want answers now.

Life would be easier without faith- that is what I meant to write.

Ash is right, it is very difficult to wait on God. I think it is funny how far away five years seems but five years ago seems like yesterday. However, knowing this doesn't seem to make me any more patient.

It's the five years from now thinking that lead to me stepping out of my current role. Thinking/praying seriously about the future can often mean serious life change to get there.

It's good change, but change is still hard!

But isn't change kind of the root of our faith, Christ is changing us, the world, everything.

So I guess positive change, even if painful, is somehow close to God's heart?

umm, never thought of change that way, could be wrong.



Ammon - as far as muppet babies and muppet adults coexist, that will just have to remain one of those mysteries of the universe.

you're absolutely right! I do get to love people in almost any job. I guess my frustration is figuring out what type of job sets me up to live out of my personality and skills enabling me love the best I can. then actually finding a position in that type of work is the second huge step!
