Well another week has gone by. I still don't have a start date and the paperwork I have sent won't be looked at until Monday!
WASTE- I sttod up on Sunday night and church and told people that I have a new job but no start date which has been a massive release. I also shared that the hardest part of all this is the not knowing. My personality type is such that I have to be doing something, I cannot sit around at home all day doing nothing. I need to be in the midst of something.
What I am trying to say that we often see life as a waste of time when we aren't doing what we want to be doing, when actullay life is so valuable. There is that moment when this woman breaks open her expensive perfume (think really expensive Armani or the like). Jesus followers (ie christians like me) said what a waste that could have gone to the poor. Do you know soemthing without thinking the disciples revealed something in what they said. It was a waste to lavish something precious on Jesus. When faced with a day in front of me I plow into painting the fence, doing the washing, decorating, doing stuff.
It erks me when politicians call me a consumer, as if I am some mindless entity who has no understanding or intelligence. I don't go with the herd I can think for myself, I have reasons for why I belive, why I live my life and make my choices. Yes at times I am a hypocrite but my desire my passion is to live like Jesus did. What that looks like I guess is the part which takes time but that is not a waste.
