I’m Blank
Image by IW4
I’m silent - completely lost for words to blog about this week for some reason.
I’m stressed - mainly from feeling like I can’t wrap my head around everything going on in my life right now.
I’m disconnected - still haven’t found the level of friendships I’d hoped to find in Atlanta by now; good friends around, but none that I know, or who know me, really well.
I’m cynical - can’t find a settled place in my search for what church should look like for me and my family at this point and time.
I’m homesick - missing Oklahoma a lot right now for some reason.
I’m confused - trying to read 17th century Christian literature and having a hard time understanding it all.
I’m indifferent - feel like I should care about the things that I know in my heart are core spiritual things.
I’m anticipating - having a houseful of friends, old friends, and new friends for Catalyst 08 in a little over a month!
I’m eager - to see what God is going to do as we continue to take steps forward with diving deeper into house church.
I’m blessed - by a beautiful wife who I can’t believe understands me as well as she does.
What about you?

I identify with each of those. I started to say especially this one or that one… but, fact is, I’m identifying with so many - if not all. Okay - except maybe the beautiful wife part, but I’m feeling pretty fortunate to be that person and I do love you so.

What Are Thin Places?
"Thin Places" are rich in Celtic tradition. They are the places in our lives where the divine and the natural worlds come so close together that we can catch a glimpse of God. For the Celtics these places were very real - places within creation where we could physically go. The Thin Places in our own lives are those moments where the space between us & the Kingdom is thin, when we are introduced to a greater glimpse of Who He is through our experiences and through the stories of others.

Some similar spots in life for us right. Disconnected describes pretty well how I feel about the relationships in my life. Actually in transition may describe it better. Moving away from some old relationships, but not sure were the new ones will develop. Anticipating Catalyst as well, but mostly the mix of people that will be at your house. Looking forward to seeing the mixing of old relationship with new and the different perspectives of life. Eager- to see what God has planned as I have no clue what direction he is taking me right now. Blessed - my awesome wife who understands me even when I don’t think I make much sense. Feel I have just recently left the season of being silent (lots to say right now just not sure how to get it all down), stressed and cynical. The rhythms of life change so subtly at times that we don’t notice them while at other times it is like a tornado through our lives.
