"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).

Who's In Heaven Before Us..... Surprise. ...

"Jesus told the chief priests, “Truly I say to you that the tax collectors and prostitutes will get into the kingdom of God before you" (Matthew 21:31, NASB). Christianity is simpler and grander than the commentators and theologians have made it out to be: “Treat others the way you would have them treat you” is indeed the whole law and the prophets."
(Brennan Manning. The Signature Of Jesus)
