Greetings Dear Reader,
One would think that the spiritual aspect of following Christ
with all that I am would be the easiest part.
Although faith comes easy for me there are still challenges. Those challenges require regular attention if
I am to capture all there is.
The true challenge is in the minor things. The real challenge is in the mundane and
common. I must keep in the front of my
mind that there are no secular issues.
There are no areas that are no a spiritual issue.
This does not mean that I need to speak in spiritual
language about everything. In fact that
is pretty ineffective and does not always communicate well. I need to communicate with my life and
actions.
This means that I regard everything as an act relative to my
faith. I do not have leave to compartmentalize
anything. I must assure that in the
smallest things are treated as holy. I
must always have in mind that everything I do is done with life and energy from
God.
All that I do belongs to the Father anyway. Every action is an interaction with him. How I think becomes actions so it must be my
thoughts that are holy. Every action
matters so my actions must be holy. It
is all a matter of choose to capture everything for the purpose of walking more
closely with Christ. It is not my life
to give away to the belief that my actions to not matter at every level. Even the life is a gift that I must use
wisely. There are no secular issues.

Ain’t Yours to Throw Away – Clare Bowen & Sam Palladio
That same road that brought you here
Will sure as hell take you home
The life you left behind will have you back
You're tired of paying dues in worn out shoes
And Broadway blues
And any fool will tell you
The damn ol' deck is stacked
What if you're just a vessel?
And God gave you something special
It ain't yours to throw away
It ain't yours to throw away
Every time you open up your mouth
Diamonds come rolling out
It ain't yours to throw away
No...
And all of the players, the movers, and shakers
The story maker suits have gone home
You drew the last slot
You thought it was your shot
But now it's just one more chance blown
What if you're just a vessel?
And God gave you something special
It ain't yours to throw away
It ain't yours to throw away
Every time you open up your mouth
Diamonds come rolling out
It ain't yours to throw away
No...
And our town is cold as January
Life comes true, and dreams get buried
Every day...
Destiny won't be denied
It ain't yours to throw away
No, it ain't yours to throw away
'Cause every time you open up your mouth
Diamonds come rolling out
It ain't yours to throw away
It ain't yours to throw away ...
Throw away
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store.”
