Some thoughts
2001-04-29 - 20:28

Life is not an essay to be written - an analysis to help us with the life after, but to be lived. God's more interested in on-the-job training than excessive schooling.

God is like a driving instructor, one even better (though it is difficult to imagine :-) than Phil, who sits next to us, gives us direction and when all seems lost, applies the brakes and takes hold of the wheel. We can resist this, but it usually ends up with us injuring ourselves with our own bad driving. He teaches us in confidence so that his ways are our ways and we can safely handle our vehicles to where we need to go.

I am me, and therefore I am beautiful. Beauty is in uniqueness, and I, my body and my mind, are unique for a unique path in life. You are beautiful too.

I am the message, not just the messenger. It's not just what I say and do 'in the Name of God' it's how I act all the time, whether I'm obviously in his service or not. I have to behave with integrity and show love for all, not just for the people who seem to matter most.

I over-analyse. Actually I usually expect everything to be so complex that I forget how to do simple things and end up doing nothing. It's rather pathetic. Better to just run with my arms open if I want to receive than write a detailed letter of request giving a specific appointment for reception.

God is good. Jesus is my Lord and Saviour.
