I find being unemployed an awfully great time for contemplation and solitude. However, this is not often voluntary. As a matter of fact, I think its starting to be maddening. :) Its a great time, even if its uncomfortable for a socialite much like myself, because it makes me a more flexible human being. There is a lot of healthy infighting going on right now, I think its good to embrace it.
I think its also good to use these cliffhanger moments to point me towards God's Dominion. "He was, He is, He is to come." A friend of mine, once had a conversation with me about this concept of an overarching God, who lives outside of time. Its a rather exciting concept, to know that to God, I am being born, just as I am sitting here today, and also dying. That those miniscule gaps inbetween are hardly recognizable when looked at through the lens of the Kingdom. Its comforting to me, to know My God is big, and yet He cares about the little victories. Takes on the role of a Loving Father. Its often easier to think of God as if He is wearing His Judicial garb, pointing and judging, expecting, anticipating failure. Its easy because Human Logic knows That, to be predictable of Humanity. But when we presume that onto ourselves, and we place that image on our God we are really settling for something subhuman right? I need to read more C.S. Lewis. Push comes to shove, what I'm trying to say is, I want to cast off those pretense and do my best to let God's Love for me be important. I am going to start seeing his graces around me. ha. love it. :)
Recap of my meanderings over the past 24 hours. Spent time hanging out with my friend Kevin, playing video games, watching a movie at the Theatre and spending time with my god daughter Grace. Loved it.
Adventures.
