Quoting a truth is easier than living it out in real life. Putting truth on a plaque or poster is nice, but it doesn't change a person's life.
Memorization of Scripture is good for retention, but it won't produce transformation in a person's life on its own. What we know in our minds doesn't automatically bring change in our hearts or our self-will.
Truth doesn't bring transformation until it's transferred from thought into action, which requires an active, personal faith.
Sometimes our plans get interrupted by life, and sometimes it's a weather interruption. Because we live so close to the coast (5 blocks from the beach), we evacuated to our son's home inland a ways.
We did our best to set things in order and get as much off the ground as we could, but how do you prepare for 100+ miles/hour winds and the potential of several feet of storm surge?
I'm writing this while we've got power, so we'll see how our home fares in the next few days as hurricane Matthew spins through our area.
I was a praise and worship leader for four decades. I suppose I could still lead, but my role in life and ministry is different now.
I miss that role at times, especially when I see leaders overly concerned with their performance and presentation of the music. It grieves me when I see this for that shouldn't be their focus.
It's easy to see that American culture exalts good performance and entertainers. But this is more of a human flaw than a cultural one.
