"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 Gets Lonely When God Has No One To Walk With in the Dew of the Day.

If this is true..... It is the most hopeful, powerful, encouraging, and enriching message behind the scripture accounts. Makes the Cross make sense.
"Why did God create us? There is only one answer: for relationships. God
decided not to have a life of God's own but to share the divine life with us.
God gets lonely when God has no one to walk with in the dew of the day. This
is one of the greatest self-disclosures in all of history. Amazing, vulnerable,
divine self-disclosure. God created us for companionship."

(Leonard Sweet. What Matters Most. Pg 16)
