"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).

Not Burried Next to Me !

Team Expansion workers, Phil and Kim Kornegay, from Japan write

"Praise God, the daughter of one of the ladies in our English Bible study was recently immersed into Christ. Emma Matsumoto wanted to be baptized in the river 'like Jesus' she said. Her parents invited many people. It was a big day; there was a worship time and they organized a big BBQ afterward.

A couple weeks before her baptism, her father told her this meant she COULDN'T BE BURIED next to him, since Christians and Buddhists are not allowed to be buried together.

Emma said, "That's OK, you are my Daddy but God is my Father."

Please pray for Emma in her new Christian walk. Also please lift up her daddy who is not yet a Christian, but did support her decision."
