"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

Everything In Our Power..........!

Passion for Lost:

"Mean while my thoughts plunged ahead in a different direction. A house in Israel with a whole in the roof. A packed crowed of onlookers, but no sirens, no blood. Men carrying a helpless victim- not out of the house, but into it. Suddenly, the whole scheme of God's mission flashed before me. Whether it was the paramedics carrying a wounded child to the ambulance, or the four men who tore a hole in a house roof to lower a helpless man into the presence of Jesus, they epitomized the church's part in God's mission. People of faith do everything in their power to connect hurting people with the source of healing."

(Final Analysis, Jim Reapsome EMIS, Wheaton College, Il, 1999, pg 11)
