These last five years have been quite a journey. I have had some good ups and some serious downs. What's funny is, I feel like I've come full circle; I'm kind of back to what I learned in the beginning:
Whatever the problem, some will choose to be part of the solution, and some won't (Proverbs 12:1).
When the rubber meets the road, very few will truly choose humility and love (Matthew 7:13-14).
The only way I can ever be part of a group where I agree with everything is if I'm part of a group where everyone thinks like me. This will almost never happen, when it does it will be brief, and it is not best. Participating in groups where people think very differently from me is how I get to practice being like Him, and this is what truly matters (1 Corinthians 9:19-23).
These things will never change, and I am not here to fix the world but to be a little light in the darkness, pointing to the only real solution (2 Timothy 3:1-5; Matthew 5:14-16).
I have failed hard and often to be like Jesus, but I must never give up (Romans 12:21; Philippians 3:12).
