The Christian life, the spiritual life is all about change.
I was that sort of person. Now, I am becoming this sort of person. Maybe gradually or maybe suddenly. Maybe I learn a little every day. Maybe something is revealed to me a little at a time. Maybe an event happens opening my eyes to what I’ve been and what I could be.
A preacher used to turn to his right and motion a direction and then turn to his left and motion a direction. That’s repentance, he said, I was going that way, and now I’m going this way.
I’m writing this at 6am on a Monday morning. I have a busy week this week and will be meeting many people—both in person and over the Web.
What will I learn from these encounters? Will I see or hear something that nudges me a bit along the way? Something that opens my eyes just a little? Or a lot?
If I am open to God’s presence for another week, what will happen?
