*"What am I gonna be when I grow up?
How am I gonna make my mark in history?"
If we've been friends for more than a minute, than you know that finding my way – the call – and living a meaningful life is Job 1 (as an expression of loving God and all that is in living.)
I've found it – sort of – "ish."
As for the specifics of the call…I've got nothing.
But for the everyday ordinary business of living, the graphic at right sums it up nicely. And pointedly.
So have I found my "special purpose?"
If the goal is loving folks Monday – Saturday the way I sing about and pray towards on Sunday, then I'm stumbling towards living out my call.
I'll leave the specifics to their future unveiling.
God is doing something. He is up to his own shenanigans of refining, redeeming, restoring, and refreshing. It is not an easy time, but such a sweetness. Somebody told me today that I looked calm – even when talking about something that has caused great anxiety. That's progress from a life author that I can trust.
I want to worship a homeless man on Sunday and love him and his buddies every day. (I think that brings worship into the everyday.)
Join me.
Oh! I'm sending out update letters and if you'd like to receive one, please email your address to me at [email protected]. I cannot guarantee that it will be suitable for framing, but it will be honest and hopeful.
