Serving because we are...

The entry for Oswald Chambers today causes a tremendous dose of spiritual reality to descend upon my work-weary senses.

What does discipleship mean to me? It is a battle against my nature to believe that if I'm not doing it (discipleship) than I am failing. What I must understand is that discipleship must become a thoughtless demonstration that I am aligned with my father's will... something that just happens.

A struggle always erupts concerning my effort to follow Christ. I am a man of extremes, and my mind swings like a pendulum between 401k's, college funds, and a life of utter abandonment to material things.

Romans 12

The voices of our world constantly spin us in disconnected circles. Our entire existence strives toward an ideal of one sort or another.

Where am I going?

Where is my neighbor going?

What is my purpose?
