“be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness.” Titus 2
Everybody has their quirks and despite our best efforts to keep it together the best of us loose it at times. That we must keep it together reveals just how thin the veneer that covers the likelihood that we will fall apart in a crisis. We are what we have practiced and I suppose like posture if we sit poorly most of the time we will not be able to sit straight very long in a crisis. Our stamina in a crisis will last about as long as someone sucking in their tummy for a photo. Crisis will bring out our true posture. 4/22/2011 Conversations Within ts (Oak Mountain, AL)
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.
