Of Love and Courage
Of Love and Courage - Whoever would carry the fire within, must not fear being burned.
One who has no cause to fear has also no cause for courage.
Whoever would carry the fire within, must not fear being burned.
Love alone can withstand the heat of its consuming fire.
Therefore one cannot love without courage, nor act in courage without love.

Proverbs 19:3
Karma should serve up a simple life to the simple man, but unless the simplicity aligns with wisdom by some grand cosmic accident or loving mercy, the simpleton and the fool alike may expect to come to ruin.
When a man’s folly brings his way to ruin his heart rages against the LORD.
– Proverbs 19:3
Similar to the man whose way is right in his own eyes, the one who does not listen to wisdom (the fool) will find his path leads to destruction. Ironically, this is often the point at which the ruined person begins to point fingers at God saying he is not good, does not care, or is somehow ‘out to get…

Beyond Explanation
Those seeking to educate individuals who would form culture instead of destroying it, who will build communities instead of fostering prejudice, who innovate with artistry rather than mere functionality…would do well to consider shifting the focus
Yesterday, I experienced a moment of pause when I was speaking about how to let go of control by embracing the mystery of the goodness of God. To me, this is a newer practice, but I already value teaching it far more than I value teaching people how to more effectively control the world around them through a comprehensive explanation or understanding of some academic discipline.
This second…

Something More
Right now it feels like I stand in between the entry point of reality and something more like unreality from which I cannot escape.
I have come one direction for a while, but I need the courage to keep going: to answer the call to see beyond what I already know – beyond what captures the hearts and imaginations of the world around. I would like to illustrate this subtle distinction within a…

The Father's Song
The Father’s Song
Life finds its full expression in relationship.
Within the mystery of love, joy becomes strength, and from this foundation of identity as children of God we find the courage to be strong.
Faith is not a retreat from reality but a choice to live with a new perspective. Whatever truth lies behind the music in this video introduced an experience of peace and courage that I hope to always remember.

Injustice? Wait For the LORD - Proverbs 20:22
Injustice? Wait For the LORD – Proverbs 20:22
Do not say, “I will repay evil”; wait for the LORD, and he will deliver you. (Proverbs 20:22)
One morning I parked my truck in an empty lot and sat down on a rock to wait for my friend. When he arrived we took his car to another part of town for a bite to eat. Not even twenty minutes later another friend called saying my truck was about to be towed by the people who owned the restaurant beside…

The Word of the Lord Tested Him
The Word of the Lord Tested Him
Psalm 105:16-22 tells the story of Joseph who was promised a position of authority but was “…put in a collar of iron; until what he had said came to pass, the word of the LORD tested him…”
Why does the word of the LORD test the individual to whom it comes?
What should I expect when it comes to me? What if the promises of God become the very area I must be tested in so that I can receive the…

Appearances are subject to the interpretation of the observer – Proverbs 16:25
There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.
– Proverbs 16:25
It is possible to be deceived about the nature of wisdom and end up walking in a way that seems right but really is not.
In this Proverb, the contrast is not between truth and falsehood but between what is right and what is death. This is what I am discovering lately throughout the scripture: truth has to…

Sometimes the answer is in the question.
The mark of the educated man is not in his boast that he has built his mountain of facts and stood on the top of it, but in his admission that there may be other peaks in the same range with men on the top of them, and that, though their views of the landscape may be different from his, they are nonetheless legitimate.
E.J. Pratt, poet (4 Feb 1882-1964)
