#Faith

It’s called the mystery of Faith for a reason. None of it can be proven, except the part where it works for people who believe in it.

So yeah, totally mystery.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Thy will be done

Orange County Zoning hearing room — Before yesterday’s special request for zoning variances that determine the school’s future.

Thy will be done. Learning to surrender to what is uncontrollable is a constant balance of discerning what is controllable and what isn’t.

Meanwhile, the best strategy i have found is to pray for peace and contentment while simultaneously remaining determined.

A bit like driving with one foot on the gas and the other on the brake.

A huge lesson in patience (and faith) to let things unfold as they should.

When to accept defeat and when to dig in?

Senior Living laundry room — Their devotion is remarkable.

When to accept defeat and when to dig in?

Surrender is fundamental to spirituality.

Surrender is also intense and difficult.

i remember surrendering to God’s will. If He didn’t want me to become a dad (the thing i came to realize i wanted more than anything in the whole world) than i would move forward without the dream of being a dad.

Is giving up the same as surrender? Or are they the same things, just different looking?

If we lose our ability to walk, and require 24/7 nursing care, and we’ve been blessed with nine decades of life, would it be easy to abandon hope and faith?

Are you unwilling to be comfortable?

Florida vulture at trash can — Yesterday was the first time i’ve ever seen a vulture rummaging through trash. Not part of the natural ecosystem.

Are you unwilling to be comfortable?

To feel comfortable we are steadfastly moving from selfish to selfless.

To feel comfortable we are living without the desire for material possessions.

To feel comfortable that our peace and contentment is our driving ambition.

To know that we are loved.

To be comfortable loving without expectation.

Am i unwilling or willing?

Totally willing.

You?

The devil’s brilliant plan is working

It’s easy to get things turned upside down.

The devil’s brilliant plan is working.

Let the world become so full of hate that people will question God, and begin doubting Him more consistently.

It is in our doubting that the devil gains control – one human being at a time, one thought at a time.
