Two minute read.
We are moving into 4th Iteration of Hearts and Minds. That word ITERATION fits well with these messages because it means;
- Renewal
- Repeating
- Replaying
If our Hearts and Minds aren’t with it, Mr. Renewal will not work! Let alone Repeating and Replaying.
In the Gospels we read that; Where your treasure is, your heart will already be there. We’ve identified how the Heart and Mind are deeply attuned in our day to day life. And of course, all one needs is to find oneself into that day by day life.
Father Richard Rohr notes for us that; “At the center of our being we know we were meant for more.” Do you not at times feel this desire, this MORE? If not you may need to start hanging out with some new friends.
We are made to know ourselves and to be known by others. Simple, right?
Brother Rohr continues and believe me, he knows of what he is speaking. Without Intentional Awakening, we find ourselves performing life to someone else’s script.”
Now what happens when we truly discover who we are? Or, at the very minimum, when we feel it throughout our lives.
I want to begin this right there, with a new REALITY!
A new reality which has been Lost to many who have Chosen the life others believe they should lead. That is going to Require what is Meaningful, not what is Expedient.
A Meaningful Life Requires something of you and me.
- To Change
- To Find Wisdom (big one, really big)
- To Pursue Understanding
Finding that Wisdom and Understanding in the literature of the Old Testament in Proverbs 16:16
How much better to get wisdom than gold. And to choose understanding rather than silver.
My Commentary notes that Wisdom and Understanding are two words we should pay attention to.
Wisdom = Heart and Understanding = Mind
Words like these change our world, indeed they must
Gabe Lyon with Q-Ideas.org puts it this way.
“The Christian has a calling to and a responsibility to Think, Work, and Live in terms of how the World ought to be.”
I love that single statement, how about you? How should the World be from your perspective?
Brother Lyon’s continues with two specific questions.
Where Are We Headed? and How Will We Get There?
Let’s jam back in to see where these two questions will draw us.
