"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).

In The Hands Of The Devil, Or God?

Most preaching make it sound like we are more in the hands of the devil than in God’s hands.....

"Evangelist Robert Frost, in an address in San Jose, California, remarked, “The Lord brought me up short with the challenge: ‘Why do you persist in seeing your children in the hands of the devil, rather than in the arms of their faithful Shepherd?’ I then realized that in my mind I had been imagining the evils of the present age as being more powerful than the timeless love of God.”
(Brennan Manning. The Signature Of Jesus)
