About Me

My photo
Warrior of Light Online When he learns to handle his sword, he discovers that his equipment has to be complete – and that includes armor. He goes out to look for armor and hears what some vendors propose to him. "Wear the breast-plate of solitude," says one. "Wear the shield of cynicism," answers another. "The best armor is not to get involved in anything," suggests a third. The warrior, however, does not listen to them. He goes serenely to his sacred place and dons the indestructible cloak of faith. Faith softens all blows. Faith changes poison into crystal-clear water. His angel whispers to him: "Yield everything." The warrior kneels down and offers his victories to God.

This Lent, I feel I haven't done enough reflections and decisions to sacrifice...but God assures me that there is potential and I will soon be moving

blue bike
“The bike sitting alone, not cast off but incomplete. The rider is not evident, only implied. Incomplete, stationary, motionless, the bike sits abandoned, seemingly, for something more important. An appointment? A meal? A romantic interlude? The bike’s purpose is found in its motion, in the turning of its wheels and pedals. Sometimes our relationship with God is like this. Ours is a God of motion and change and sometimes we are distracted and separated from that. Sometimes it is important that we become aware of God by his seeming absence—the dark night of the soul. But the bike waits. The movement and adventure wait. There is no lost time. Statius is potential. Movement is actualization. All are part of God.”
