Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?
Mt. Rundle Sunrise — Vermilion Lakes, Banff National Park, Alberta
We are in the presence of something at all times. It is hard to miss a sunrise like this, and we have to look more closely at other things, but. Everything waits to be seen for what it is, where it is, when it is, how it is, and that is what we are here for-- to see what we look at and know it for what it is and is capable of being. Including when we look in the mirror.
We are here to see, know, honor, respect, worship and adore what is here with us in all times and places.
Seeing things brings things forth. Knowing things for what they are and also are brings things to life. Latent possibility is everywhere all the time. It takes us to see, hear, know and understand. That is our role in life. An aspect of being who we are, doing what is ours to do.
I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing.
I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
