| I was thinking (dangerous) that I might write a blog every week. What I am finding out is that I need some sort of inspiration to write. Just getting on here and saying, "I went to work today and boy was I tired when I came home..." just doesn't appeal to me, or anyone else for that matter. I can do that on Twitter or Pownce. A lot of times my inspiration comes from what I am reading at the time. Right now I am reading House by Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker. So far it is just a dark, scary and somewhat gruesome account of some people trapped in a spooky house with a menacing bad guy after them. Actually the bad guy is playing some sort of game that seems to include the untimely demise of one of the participants. This is not something I want to blog about though. It is just too depressing at this point. If I have to pick a topic today I would have to choose healing. Healing is a big part of the subject matter in the previous book I read (The Visitation) and is constantly on my mind. Why does God choose to heal some people and not others. Is it because He wants the credit and glory. Is it because some are more deserving than others in His eyes. I can not begin to guess what His plans or reasoning is. I know that He loves us very much. Jesus is the proof of that. I also know that what we are going through in this life is not really very important in the over all scheme of things... or is it? Maybe it has more to do with how we will handle adversity and sickness. Maybe it is not so much about His glory or Him getting credit as it is about growing the Kingdom so that others may know Him and be blessed by His comfort and grace. What do you think? I need some inspiration... |
