Thoughts for the Day

I have been thinking lately a lot about my life, where it is headed, and what I am doing now. I think that there are many things that God is doing with me now, but at the moment, I really have no idea what they are. As I was praying and journaling yesterday, I felt that He wanted me to open up in my creative side. Let me tell you that it has been a long time since I have done that. I used to write, and draw and play the piano, and many other things all of the time, but lately I have just been focused on the "smart" thing to do. I miss it...
I believe that God is really wanting to bring simple creativity back to the church. For so long we have been all about what looks good and smart, but really if we will just look on Jesus, he will bring us back to the simple truth of His love, joy, peace, and victory. In that we find the freedom to be creative, and to speak to the world in that way.
I am reading a book called The Bravehearted Gospel by Eric Ludy, and it is a very good book. He is talking about the need for us to bring truth, real truth back to the Church. I think that you all should read it, his ministry is to young people, and he writs to them well, but he can also effectively communicate with 'adults' . Anyway, that is what is on my heart this morning, if anyone has any feedback, then that would be grate!
