Burden

There are no re-do's in life, no reset, no restart - life is a continual progression.

But seemingly, I was given a restart - having my brain erased really does take everything.  But, memories, however hazy may trickle back.  And my brain was to be wiped three more times this year!  Were I a disk drive, I would be unrecoverable ...  Were it not for my writings, I would know nothing about me at all!

So, a mind filled with only stories and I can "fake" it in daily life - yeah it is still irritating to those whom expect something of me ... sigh ...

But, for about two weeks my spirit has been troubled - it is as much troubling to have a weird idea as to the source!  And I am not one to abruptly approach someone, I no longer know, and blindly go for the "what have you done" discussion!  At least, I don't think I am that kind of a person!

I have no idea.

So, I was reading in Colossians 3 last night and thinking on this burden - and it struck me, what is it that you do really know Kris?

I Am A Child of God
Discipleship begins with me.
Be dead to sin.
I have a new identity in Jesus.
Jesus is to become my life.
Transform my mind/life.
Put to death that which is worldly.

The Holy Spirit Dwells In Me
Discipleship requires my meeting in community with the local chyurch.
The local  church, warts and all.
The local church, mature or immature.
Fellowship is one form of witness to the world around us.
"Love" is the key to community, fellowship and witness.

I live In God's Unshakable Kingdom
Discipleship is to be lived out in the everyday relationships events.
Husband and wife.
Parent and child.
Work for God, not man.

And like all of us, I need to be darn careful whom I disciple under!  There are way too many wolves out there ...
