Interesting Lives

"In our culture, we seem more interested in pretending we live interesting lives than in actually living interesting lives."
~Matthew Kelly

This snippet caught my attention today and because it speaks to my heart, I find I must examine why it does.
Am I such a pretender? Truth be told...yes. My life is not interesting. It's pretty laid back and quite uninteresting.
I am, however, entering into a new phase and hope that there are some exciting adventures in the Lord awaiting us as we head into this new phase of life.
Lord, please lead me to where you want me to go.
"For we walk by faith, not by sight."~2 Corinthians 5:7.

The Beginning of the Lenten Journey

"Working together, then, we appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain."
~2 Corinthians 6:1

Barren and without apparent life, we head into the desert to be purged, purified and tested in life's crucible.
We will walk together, the Lord and I, searching for meaning as we struggle to survive. Searching for answers to the questions which plague our minds, searching for the goals of which our hearts dream.
