semi-pointless ponderings

just wanted to give one of my favorite people something to read on her thursday morning.

i have lots in my head and tons in my heart....but it's too much to try and put into words. maybe later. can't help but think of a quote from john eldridge's "walking with God"

"when it comes to crises or events that really upset us, this i have learned: you can have God or you can have understanding. sometimes you can have both. but if you insist on understanding, it often doesn't come...He doesn't explain everything. but He always offers us Himself."

on a totally different note, i read another significant quote earlier that i really like. "No one tells you that wealth numbs you to life and consumerism callouses your soul to the sacred." i don't want to be numb to life or calloused to the sacred. there ya go.

thanks for caring enough to read my blog.
