The story...
What might the only church in town look like? I asked a sketching-hobbyist friend to paint a one-church town. She responded with questions regarding what I wanted it to look like. I asked her not to bias or restrict her imagination - "Please sketch the purpose of the blog." She agreed to draw her image; yet, seemed a bit uneasy regarding how "good" it would be - would it meet my expectations? She did good...
I wonder if we'd more readily "draw" from our inner-person, soul, or heart, if we periodically did spiritual reality assessments. It seems like we'd grow in self-awareness as we pray, quietly meditate, and bend our ear toward God. Is this part of what it means to walk humbly with God?
Just for today...
