What I Say, not What I Do: 1 Controversial Message for Your 7th or 8th Grader

Why can parents say "Jesus Christ" in frustration, but kids can't?  Why can your school guidance counselor smoke cigarettes while you're taught day after day that it causes cancer and is bad?  Why can priests preach the message of Christ, but then go and engage in sinful behaviors with children?  What ever happened to role models?             Last week began a new school year at the school where I substitute teach, speak at Chapel and considered a role model.  As part of opening week I was to…See More

Purity and Freedom: Powerful Concept for Your 7th or 8th Grader

                   Purity is a difficult topic to address these days.  The way you frame your ideas can make it seem as if you're talking down to people, especially if speaking to a younger generation.  It can seem like a list of don'ts and shouldn'ts that you must follow, but you won't get any personal good from doing so (besides avoiding punishment).  You do it because someone in authority wouldn't be happy if you don't, or because you hold fear that once you break this law, you'll be…See More

Walking a Tightrope: What Does the Balanced Life Look Like?

Have you ever awoken in the middle of the night to a baby crying? And you look over to where your partner should be and he or she isn’t there? In my case, it was midnight and the baby had been screaming for quite some time.  In my house, my wife takes care of the screaming babies and I take care of everything else. But on this particular night, she wasn’t there and I went to look for her. Yet tonight, my wife wasn’t there.  She wasn’t in the living room or anywhere downstairs and searching…See More

I find the tightrope is indeed stressful and never seems to be a balance that will satisfy.

From my many blunders I have learned the best approach is to jump - (A leap of faith).

For me that meant the tightrope was to hard to balance, so I now elect to jump off into the net. The net is God's way of keeping me safe.  Safe, is first trusting him, second is keeping my families trust, shown through my actions and supported by the first.  Third is leaving the tightrope in the distance.  Leaving the tightrope for me was defined as work's high achievements, worries, challenges; left as a distant third to all else.  The balance looks best from the net, because when my love for the first and second priorities comes first, God will surely walk with me in love on the tightrope.  He will guide me across; through the challenges, worries and achievements, all to his glory.  Looking up now, the net is indeed satisfying, comfortable and secure.  As I finish sharing these thoughts tonight, an Avalon song - I don't want to go, without your love ... just started playing.

Thanks be to God!!

By for now,

Mark
