I feel mushy

I am a blogging failure.

I knew this would happen. On some level, I really tried to convince myself that it wouldn't, but that inner voice that is compelled by reason instead of emotion is saying, " I told you so!" right now.

My daily life during the ministry year doesn't allow much room for blogging. It doesn't allow much room to even think about all of the things I could potentially blog about if I had the time to sit down and write. My brain is consumed with the practicalities of ministry rather than the philosophical meditations of living life with Jesus.

There are some days (like today), when there seems to be no good reason that I can't think or read or write, other than the mere fact that my brain feels like mush. I am praying that this phase passes, though, because my heart is aching to be filled with new understanding, a fresh fire and a vibrant passion.

I don't ever want the chaos of life (even ministry itself) to distract me from the most important and all-consuming part of me.

Jesus.

Pray that my mushy mind would reconstruct and meaningfully engage over God's truth. . . and that through His powerful Spirit I would find words to express the beauty and awe of the truth of my Savior. . .

And please know that even when my mushy mind can't find words I am wordlessly praying for you!
