It's very late ... actually very early Friday morning and I really want to get to bed but I've been writing and then re-writing and then deleting only to write some more. I can't seem to say one blessed thing worth reading at the moment... only to say that my original idea of Coffee Talk Thursday is just not working. I like Somethin Sunday, Word on Wednesday, and will soon be introducing Monthly Monday book reviews... Since I have Word on Wednesday I figure Thursday is A Okay to not leave a post... perhaps it's too much but at the same time it was a lame title and theme for Thursday... :)
I have some ideas brewing in my mind and being stirred up in my heart to write about so there will be blog posts not only worth writing but also worth reading as well.. not because I'm the one writing it but because it's taking some things I've posted in the past and taking them to a deeper level of thought and process. When I first set out to write this blog I had an idea to really have on here my reflections about my own journey. I would write about my own process and perhaps within the process one can find in my earlier writings this kind of siting on the fence if you will without any real choice being made.... that wasn't the case really...
where I am at within my own personal process in this journey is not really a good way to measure my faith and walk of obedience. It's one thing to struggle all the way towards bending into one's desires fueled by undisciplined passions and desires and completely other to acknowledge struggles and even to voice doubt, insecurity, and vulnerability while making the choice to live and walk holding every thought captive to the obedience to Christ... when we're holding every thought captive to the obedience to Christ there is one sure foundation that all question all doubt and all weaknesses and all vulnerabilities can rest upon...
so in our heart of hearts we can be all over the place seemingly unanchored but really in the midst of such contemplation of meditation where all things are acknowledged whether it is strength or weakness, doubt or certainty .. all things become acknowledged and the cross of Jesus Christ can once and for all be glorified not only when we make the choice to stand in difficult times and places but also in the place of our greatest of failures and where we've experienced the most profound wounding.... this is where we truly begin to see the significance of the Cross and perhaps where we not only begin to share in Christ's suffering but also in His resurrection.
