Soul Talk

I met with Sue yesterday. I told Sue that my music hasn't seemed like it's filling me up as much now. It's as though I'm used to the songs and they're just playing in the background. I feel a little out of touch with God. I know He hasn't gone anywhere and that life has just seemed to be going along. I'm not reading the Bible and haven't picked up the Shack to reread it.

I'm at kind of a stand still. Sue quoted a verse that loosely said sometimes it's not in the past but what's coming that's new. God knows when to interject something new to help us not get caught up in monotony or routine. I now have curiosity around this. It is an exciting question. Where will I find God that will be new? My meeting with Sue has helped to remind me that God is here and now.

My number one commitment for 2009 is love. Love for and from my God, for family and friends, acquaintances and also those I haven't met yet. The excitement is where the love will be evident...in the very simplest of things.

I also spoke to Sue about having more soul talks in my life. But I felt it was too early for me to delve into the book Soul Talk. I set that book aside because of how raw it is. I'm not quite ready for that yet.

I am wanting love. From the love that comes from my life I will strengthen my faith and hope. I'll also be able to share that with others.
