I haven’t written for a couple of days. Busy and wrestling. It has been a busy few day and I haven’t made time; plus I have been wrestling inside. The ‘what should I do’ thought continues to steep a deep brew.
Beyond that two competing thoughts battle within. Am I nuts? Do people think I’m off my rocker for this entire project… self-doubt. This alternates with thoughts that a week of rice and beans isn’t enough. Maybe as a church, a collective, we could pool our resources and abilities and make a BIGGER difference… found a not-for-profit company that digs bore-hole wells or simple solar for electricity or water purification that could serve missionaries and communities throughout Africa. Maybe we could partner with Peter Frethein and City Ministries could train the people to run the business in Nigeria. Maybe...
And so dreams and doubts flow within me… more like the white-caps of a storm rather than the gentle flow of the tide. I wake early with one thought or the other, sometimes both, pounding the surf of my mind and so I pray…
Only time will tell which one, if either, warranted any mind-time!
I started reading another book, Too Small to Ignore Why the Least of These Matters Most by Dr Wess Stafford, President & CEO of Compassion International. Many similar themes, yet a largely different read. More in coming blogs…
