"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).

Trustin That God Always Acts Redemptively

We are saying that he is the changeless one. His love never fluctuates,; his Mercy is inexhaustible; his wisdom cherishes all that is truly good; his power can always be trusted to act  redemptively....

So we need not speculate what will be his response whenever we turn to him, whether it be from an hour of victory or from a night of defeat; from an act of which we are proud, or from one of which we are heartily ashamed.. ..
It matters not who we are or where we are, a holy God is our God in whom there is nothing to adulterate or diminish or alter the transcendent qualities which our weakness or our sinful is need. He is always God. Nothing is ever missing from him...."

(Albert Edward Day. The Captivating Presence)
