An internal and personal faith is important, but only if it moves us to externally transformed lives. It isn't about a showy or false "look at how good I can be" existence, but rather a faith that allows us to do what is right even when noone esle would care. (though God always cares) An invisible faith lived out, is visible and measurable. It shouts when justice, mercy and righteousness are called for, and it is quiet when it needs to be. But in everything it is indisputably there, reaching, teaching, and healing.
Hope to SEE you tomorrow!

I'm always glad to hear from people who have taken time to read the posts here... even those who may not agree with me. I have had to make changes in the way I handle comments for this blog. They will all be subject to moderation from here on in. And as this is a personal blog and I have sole responsibility for its upkeep, it may take me a while to clear a post. I only ask 2 things from those who would leave comments.
1.) Please give your name. I have posted under mine, not anonymously or with a user name that would hide my identity. I would hope if someone was going to share an opinion, thought, criticism, or atta boy, that they would do so without fear of being identified so we can have an open dialogue.
2.) Please be respectful in the use of your language. Any cuss words, slurs, or other specifically vitriolic language will result in your comments not being posted. This is simply an attempt to keep a civil and life affirming tone for this space.
Thanks! And remember... Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss things. But small minds talk about people. Let's try to be great together.
