I am a wanderer. I would say that I am a seeker, but sometimes I have no idea what I might be seeking, so I will stick with wanderer. This blog is more a public journal than anything. I don't claim to have life figured out. I simply stumble from mystery to mystery, and share my reflections along the way. Sometimes I feel burdened, and trudge. Sometimes? Well sometimes grace breaks through, and its time to dance.

God revealing
Whenever an individual or a business decides that success has
been attained, progress stops.
~ Thomas J. Watson
________________________________________________________
when the church decided God was done
revealing
that all that was to be said
was already said
when the Bible became an ending point
not something pointing toward the Kingdom
when words meant to be read in the spirit
became a system of rules
an excuse for ideology
dead words on a page
then the progressive revelation of God in this world
stopped
and what was living and vital
became dead an entombed
denying resurrection
a living God
a resurrection God
requires a willingness to go to
continually new places
even, sometimes
a fresh take on old world
for God is always doing “a new thing”
can you not see it?
