Sharing a few of the things Ive been pondering in my heart over the last couple of months, and this is scary, you guys -- saying these things out loud. But its time, I think. Becoming a Different Kind of Small ...He is waking me up, y’all. Shaking my eyes open to all the ways I was made for humble community with humanity. With those who know Jesus, and those who don’t. With those whose theology matches my own, crossed ‘t’ for dotted ‘i,’ and those with whom differences are many and varied. And those in the latter category — I’m learning to sit quiet in their presence and let Jesus expand me inside. More and more these days, I am seeing the ways I’ve been small-minded. The ways I’ve presumed to offer answers to the world, and in doing so missed the heart of the One who is the truest Answer-with-a-capital-’A’, but who sometimes shows up as the Answer in ways and people and places I where my eyes haven’t been open to discover Him.... danalbutler/…/becoming-a-different-kind-of-small/
