The mark of a year Wednesday, November 30, 2005 Well for the most part today becomes tomorrow being the last day to mark a long year. A wee over a year ago I started going to Sojourn. But before that I was in a series of change. I was in a rommate situation I was starting to hate and my life had a direction yet a failing direction. SO I started going to Sojourn and then moved shortly thereafter. A year of living on my own and I guess just giving time to be myself and come to learn some more on who and how I am. That I did. No I didn't it was God who showed me who I was...I just had to accept. Well it has not all been peaches n fun. But a good year later I now mark a year into community. For now I have two roomates so that's a community effor right there. Then it is the first time living wioth others of the same faith. Moving has always been such a pain for me. This time my whole community group was there and helped me move. It was great. I got moved in three hours what takes three weeks. So a community helped me move into a community. I have also also started into community in my journey for a few other issues. Now I am in a season of growing pains where my old ways are now at battle with my new ways. I can't do this alone and some days are better than others. But for now this new year is starting off very soon. WHo will come out in the end the wretched old Tom or the New one? I know many see the new one. Even when I do not. Yet this is God's doing. giving up in total surrender is so very difficult to do. Much like Luke on Degobah with Yoda, he had to unlearn what he has learned. Well more to come. Today is a good day for me. Tomorrow is around the corner. I need to crawl out of the old. posted by Tom at 9:20 PM 0 Comments: Post a Comment << Home

Smooth let it be or rough, It will be still the best; Winding or straight, it leads Right onward to Thy rest. I dare not choose my lot; I would not, if I might; Choose Thou for me, my God, So I shall walk aright. Take Thou my cup, and it With joy or sorrow fill, As best to Thee may seem; Choose Thou my good and ill. Choose Thou for me my friends, My sickness or my health; Choose Thou my cares for me My poverty or wealth. The kingdom that I seek Is Thine: so let the way That leads to it be Thine, Else I must surely stray. Not mine, not mine the choice In things or great or small; Be Thou my Guide, my Strength My Wisdom, and my All. ~Horatius Bonar
