sunnuntaina, tammikuuta 25, 2009

past midnight ramblings and longings.


It was again a truly wonderful day.
A treat and a treasure for a sabbath day.
In the beams of sunlight, in the steps on
pathways, in the conversations, in the mist which
covered hills fading to the horizon I felt this
call, this deep longing and desire for something...
Something bigger than me, something that
I can't do by myself and definitely not alone.
I want to see a community,
community that has set it's heart on
corporate destiny,
on search and adventure.
A community that is a family,
band of brothers and sisters,
living loving eating laughing.
A community that wants to be
and actively takes steps in training to be
servants of justice,
servants of passion
and servants of God.

When God, when?

We were watching a movie called 'Kingdom of Heaven' tonight...
It reminded me of this quote by John Eldredge:
"A man must have a battle to fight,
a great mission to his life that involves
and yet transcends even home and family.
He must have a cause to which he is devoted
even unto death,
for this is written into
the fabric of his being."
