Skid Row
EDIT ADD:
Food will not control me. Neither will Starbucks. I thought that I really needed coffee in the morning to be awake, but it turns out I don't. Hm. Go figure. I haven't had coffee in like three days, and I'm fine. This morning I had an apple for breakfast. Yum. I love granny-smiths...
Christy just wrote an awesome post on her visit to Skid Row. Go read...I'm telling you, folks, the world is changing. I'm the kind of person that is going to change with it, so watch out, because it's coming. I don't know how yet, I just know what--but I never know the how before I know the what. The how will come.
Well, frankly, I barely know the what--but here's the deal: I'm not going to lock myself in my house and attempt to freeze frame my life and family how it is right now. I believe that would greive the heart of God. I'm going to find a way to make my faith real, and not just a footnote on the autobiography of my life. I don't know how, or really what, but something needs to happen.
soon.

Oooh. I like that, dear.
The world is changing. It sounds like the beginning of The Fellowship of the Ring...
God knows the how and the what...!
And may we all follow that kind of thinking! Real faith-real following the heart of God--yes! Let's go! I LOVED Christy's blog! Can you tell that it fired me up?
Amen to that! I've been trying to think about other ways to get involved in our community. God will show us where, I'm sure. I'm sure you'll let us know your "how" when you find out.

With such an open heart, I can't wait to see what God has in mind for you.
Nope, you don't need coffee, I promise. I don't drink coffee, and look at what a normal, well-adjusted person it's made me! *twitch*
Stay strong!
