Unsettled 

Since returning from CA I am just generally unsettled and irritable.  Trying to put my finger on why.  I say “just generally” but of course it’s more than that.  I find myself frustrated with the status quo and as I look around I think a lot of people are.  They are looking for more.  There’s got to be something more to this.  And so I think “okie dokie” let’s figure out ways to help people connect with that feeling and take steps toward Jesus and the real-ness in life that He can offer.  

 

And I could just run with that, but it seems there are so many other things that need attention that are besides the point (because it really is about helping people connect with God and with each other like a family).  And then I get sidetracked with everything else instead of that.  But to even add to the frustration – when I am less distracted, the people seemingly so open and looking for more in life are often resistant to the offer of a deeper life with Jesus.  

 

So that’s why I’m a grump today.

ok grumpy...rise and shine!

really i share your frustration...and i think to myself at times, maybe they just want to voice their complaint, because they don't seem to want to go beyond that. frustrating for all. i want to go deeper and i want others who i perceive feel the same status-quo listlessness to come with. so, i've determined to be a good listener and challenge them in what i hear, but as for me, i'm diving into the deep waters...wanna come swim and play with me, grumpy?

besides all that, i hope all is well in syracuse...

peace be upon you
