Live to the hilt every situation you believe to be the will of God."

Not In The Mood

On the subject of procrastination and neglect I'm probably an expert. You know, one of those experts that has 'learned from experience'. A lot has happened since I last posted here, but the nice thing about it is that you don't have to hear it all! I'm not in the mood to write, which is how I've been all year, pretty much. Just generally dry when it comes to words. I could apologize, but that won't do any good either, because I'm the one who 'suffers' for being so out of practice!

My Lord has been so kind to me, and I don't deserve his patience. He's just amazing, you know? The report on my life's direction sounds kind of like last year. My life is at His disposal. I'm not here for long; while I'm here, my calling is to bear fruit, i.e. invest my gifts (from God). I know this sounds kind of crazy when you see what it looks like. For example, I have tiny, miniscule, nothing-much of a gift in the areas of art, music, writing, and horses. So, what I do is I take my little mustard-seed-sized talent in each, I plant it, and I let it grow. This is a full time job, you know. Because none of these things are careers, and all of them 'don't count' in a money hungry culture. I am actively pursuing my Lord's directive in Matthew 25:14-30. And it is a scary thing, but I'm taking it step by step.

The last thing I want to do is turn this blog into a diary. But someone told me back when I wrote more that there was nothing on here about me. Well, the last few posts are a piece of me. Whatever appears here I hope is something that will touch someone else with light.

"...you have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much..." I pray what I'm doing reveals the Master.
