Direction "take two"

stupid computer. 

Alright, as I was saying now that I have my calling squared away, it leads me to the direction of this thing, which is...

^Genesis2:24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.

My wife, Kris spoke to me today and said, hey this isn't just YOUR journey here.  The capitalization for added influence was my interpretation of what she said, due to the fact it isn't MY journey here, it is OURS.  The thing is I had been toying with the same concept, but her more in the editing role.  Nope, she wasn't having that idea in mind she wanted to contribute more than "just an editor".  I completely agreed because it isn't my journey, this is a journey of us, for us, and for His glory.  I am truly thankful that I have a wife that isn't afraid to speak up and be feisty if need be...God bless her.  In Genesis 20 it is said "and there Abraham said of his wife Sarah, “She is my sister.”

As mentioned in a previous post I said WE are pastors of Samaria, it is only fitting that the direction becomes OUR direction.  As i was reading James 3 today I came across James 3:4

⁴ Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go., and started thinking on it. 

I am charting a course now in my life, and when you chart a course you think about direction, hmmm.  The tongue is the rudder it'll steer you, but which direction are you heading?  You see with your eyes in direction, hmmm, boat, rudders, sails...compass, you look at a compass which provides the direction.  So the tongue will steer you there and your vision will provide direction, and the sail will give you the power you need.  I don't know about you, but my heart gives me power, without it, no blood pumps and your stuck in dead wind.  I grew up on a sailboat on the weekends and if you've ever been in the middle of somewhere stuck with no wind, you are o-ffic-o-lly stuck, that is unless you have an outboard and gas, but for this, there were no outboards, they had paddles....shudders, canoed 97 miles with no current, that sucks also. 

So, wrapping this up...WE are pastors from Samaria, for Samaritans, for His kingdom.  This is our story...

Vision is focus, direction...you see your destination.  Your tongue is the rudder which steers, ur eyes the compass, and your heart the sails. 

Our sails are full...Are yours?

It is what it is, and this be it...

P.S.  I am very thankful for a laptop, but not a big fan of this one, its giving me fits, its got this dumb mouse thingy that just makes me want to ARGHHHH...and it did it again!!!!
