Shaking off the dust.
My hands and feet have been too still, they’ve gathered possibly even more dust then this keyboard, (which has not been used for at least 6 months). Recent class and small group discussions and current events in my life have prompted me to realise that I have been on the whole, inactive.
Hearing Stephen Said talk about community again scared me out of my apathy with the realisation that my life needs some serious realignment with it’s origional purpose. He asked us what had inspired, frightened and angered us during his ‘lecture’. The answer was me, and my interaction with the world.
Inspired that despite my insufficiencies God demands that I be utilised in the bringing about of his kingdom.
Frightened by the prospect of fully engaging in true community.
Angered by my personal lack of engagement with kingdom living.
I have been increasingly convicted that now it is time to grow, now it is time to act…
It’s all well and good to connect your head to your heart, but if you never connect your hands to your beliefs then you will never move. It has been time, for a long time, for me to shake off the dust and start walking again.
