on the edge with God

Hello world … October 17, 2008

There’s been a long absence, but I feel compelled to write something about my discoveries in the very humble place of motherhood.

I asked God to take me to the edge of His work; He called me into my home. This is where I am learning some humbling lessons. Mostly about laying everything down. Me first.

I find myself at another edge … standing, speaking, praying against injustice.

I am in my home, but I am going to the ends of the earth.  I am pushing against boundaries of perception, geography, time, energy, society and culture. I am on the edge with God.

And much of this I am learning from an almost five-year-old.
