Reflections of my current reading material


Right now I am slowly reading through Broken into Beautiful by Gwen Smith. I say slowly because there is so much meat in this book....it has been what I have been craving and I want to enjoy every minute...
The part I am up to now is a Satisfied Soul. We are created to be hungry... hmmm I shared this thought with Bruce who said wow that makes me feel better about not always feeling content with life. He went on to say I guess there is a balance. I agree. It's just like food... you get something so scrumptious before you and you are full but yet the fork never gets put in the sink cause you are just sitting there indulging simply because it tastes oh soooo good. God is like that ... the more I get of His presence, peace, love, hope, joy... I want more. But here's the catch just like with food... if I don't then go out and share my good stuff... my energy, time, talent...I get fat! Fat and Lazy! Like a stagnant pond I stink! God intended us to be hungry and get full and then share ... all that food... Spiritually and physically was intended to give me strength to reach out.
I am a big advocate for finding your place in church and then serving... I guess I was raised that way by Oasis... I still believe that! My next step is going out of the church and finding my place there to serve... for me it would naturally be @ work. Living my life in such a way that people are getting hungry for what I am eating... I fall short.. who doesn't!?! I get hungry for more of Christ to fill me up so I can be strong to let His blood flow through me.
