The True Self


Most of my weekend has been one that has reflecting on the TRUE SELF. Who am I? What has God created me for? I can look around and find the obvious answers...I'm a husband, a dad, a public school teacher, and it all makes sense. But within that life, where I claim to be a Christian, am I really a follower of Christ. I just watched Rob Bell's EVERYTHING IS SPIRITUAL dvd and love how he states that not just certain moments or certain aspects of our lives our "spiritual". Everything is spritual, but what is the quality of my spiritual life. Is it wasted on the "things of this world."
I thought about how I present myself, the Christian teacher, in my classroom, but I still manage to compromise the true relfection of Christ. I have myself convinced that I am the ULTIMATE, but I'm so far away from this. I am humbled by the revelations of God's spirit that I need to BE what I say I am.

Okay, that settles it. I need to check out "Everything is Spiritual." It's too weird that I just heard about it on Sunday from some friends from Kensington Community Church in Troy, and now from you.

About Me

I have woke up, grown up and have got real about the fact that God has given me JUST ONE LIFE to serve Him with. No more wasting time. Life is an amazing gift from God.
