Just yesterday I began reading a blog by a former pastor at one of our church campuses who was called to go to NY and plant a church there.
I know I'm a crier but I didn't expect to cry in response to every one of his blogs that I've read (I haven't read them all). So much for that though. I have been reading and crying because the tenderness, love and openness this guy shares is so inspiring.
When I read stories like his, I can't help but feel moved. Much of what he has shared has made my own feeble attempts at loving God and loving others, seem pathetic.
I struggle with keeping peace in my own home when others are making a huge impact on the world around them. That is my desire too. I just know that at the moment in my life, I'm being told and shown by God that taking care of home is first priority.
God please give me the strength, power, conviction, love, mercy and grace to have an impact here in my home. And if it be possible please allow me opportunities and the ability to do so wherever I am and with whomever I meet. Amen.

About Me
- atti2dchic
- I'm a Christian who questions many of the commonly held beliefs of evangelical Christianity. I don't claim to know it all nor do I expect I ever will. But in a few areas, I have found answers that satisfy my desire to understand. And I continue to hunger and thirst for Him. To know Him and to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
Linda, I saw your comment on Craig's blog and then read your recent post. The home is so important. I pray God's grace for you there and for His vision for your home and other ministry opportunities outside the home. Jeremy Z.
