Instructions Before Reading

I stand by the right to publish incomplete snippets. The point of this blog is to share life. If there is a unity in my life, it will become apparent what that unity is. No post is a complete thought, theology, worldview, or poem within itself, it must be taken within the context of the entirety of this blog, considerations of who I am in public as well as who I am in extreme situations like when I am forced to wake up at 4:30 in the morning to help my wife jump start her car in 20 degree weather.

I recognize my right as a flawed human being to do the following: 1) be wrong, 2) change my mind, 3) be inconsistent, 4) have improper grammar and spelling conventions. You are just as flawed, wrong, capricious, and prone to theological alteration as I am... so get over it.

4 Minutes

What can I do with 4 minutes. Well, pretty much everything that I neglect to do on a regular basis that I absolutely love doing. Four minutes to listen to a good song. Four minutes to play my guitar. Four minutes to read at least a small piece of creative writing. 

This is obviously my first update I've done in a long time. It is unfortunate, I love to paint with words, yet I never seem to find the time. 

I'm sure I do the same with the kingdom of God. How much time would it really take for me to meaningfully love someone? Four minutes could get the job done. I don't think I'll ever 'find' the time to do all the things I love, but I know I can make the time. Make the time to laugh, love, read, write, and play guitar, maybe write my lovely girlfriend a letter.

Find the time to take in life as God meant it to be taken in. He made it for you and I to enjoy, so lets fulfill some of his purposes.

Whoops, I'm a minute over.
