Thank you for your courage in dealing ...not with apologetics, current events, and whatever the Christian equivalent of "bull".....t is but confronting apathy..the inability to dig out of a hole...pray the same prayer...confront the boredom of everyday life...for this I thankyou...tis a noble cause.

I have learned something about myself this summer and it is that I'm not very special...just average and for this I am thankful...because in the past (yesterday) I thought that I was something and then nothing within an hour...what can you make of a person like that... Romans 12 comes to mind. I like your philosophy of just listening. I like it but it always gets me into trouble ...most humans want an instant "uh huh" after everything they say and I don't do that...I just look them right in the eyes while they talk because I know so many talkers and so few listeners. I have listened to glib folks all day and I am drained. I am lonely for a real meeting of the heart...the place where I can go and talk about the house that you mentioned...I know that this is a given for a lot of people but not for me..I re-discover it often...not every day like I should but when the Spirit allows me to see how shallow life is without His energy...most of what I see is reguration and there is not an ounce of nutrition in it.
