Re-Imagining

is a practice well-promoted in the book Soul Graffiti by Mark Scandrette. To re-imagine is to envision and ultimately restructure our lives within the context of God's kingdom -- how do we fit in, what dreams have been set to which we can faithfully aspire? As Dallas Willard is quick to mention in The Divine Conspiracy, each of our lives counts for something amazing and unique in this present time -- we each have a valuable skill that can be used in helping others live full, complete lives. It is said that this skill or talent is God's gift to us, and what we do with it is our gift back. What might yours be?

Remind Me

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."
- Proverbs 3:5-6

Psalm 51:10-12

Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.

Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.

How awesome is God?
