"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).

God Uses Persecution To Spread The Gospel 

"On one occasion he (Samuel Zwemer) was forced to leave Cairo on the grounds that he had illegally distributed tracts among university students, but the incident contributed to the conversion of one of those students. In front of his class, an infuriated professor tore to bits one of Zwemer’s tracts, and a student, curious as to why a small leaflet should create such an outrage, later picked up the fragments, pieced them together, and subsequently was converted Christianity."
