No, I am not.
I’m sure you’re aware of this, however… especially if you’ve “followed” me at any length.
Updates…
We are staying in the Atlanta area – probably moving closer in toward the city. This was a huge milestone for us. Worthy of a stone altar, no doubt. Clarity and unity are things to celebrate together as a husband and wife.
I have a baby girl on the way. She’ll be here in about 7 weeks. I am really in for it.
I have dream upon dream upon dream that God’s given me, and feel quite resonisible for seeing them mature and manifest themselves. I won’t go into too much detail, but I’ll tell you this – it involves music, visual arts, and video games. I’m not lying about that last one. It’s something I’ve wanted to do my whole life. What better time than now?
I have no job… and yet there’s been more money in my accout this past two months than I would have received in two months at my last job.
God. Is. Good.
The question now: if God’s giving me time right now, how can I avoid wasting it?
Because honestly, the quest for a job is feeling like a bit of a waste. When they tell you the economy is bad and that jobs are scarce, it’s actually true. I can’t get a job at a bookstore, for cryin’ out loud. I can’t remember a time when a Joe-Blow job was so hard to come by.
But I’ll tell you – this time we’ve had to just focus on ourselves as a family has been invaluable. God is always calling us back to discipline, and back to the basic building blocks of the stuff that makes a good human life. These basic foci have healed us in ways that are hard to describe.
We’ve joined a faith gathering with which we feel completely aligned. Contemplation, Integration, Communion, and Incarnation. Lovely. (Oh… we’re part of the Anglican Mission now, I might add.)
Where are my attempts at huge profound thoughts? Nowhere, today. Life is happening. The kingdom is at hand. May his will be done now, as it is in heaven.
Make our paths straight, God.
