The real reality

There is so much creativity and passion and risk in alt.worship and emerging thinking on other blogs that it's scary just to say the ideas I snitch from others and the delight I find in leading worship at church.

Perhaps this dissonance is actually the reason for this blog - do I have the guts to speak...as a non-ordained minister not doing 'traditionally emerging' stuff? as a not traditionally qualified tafe teacher who delights in her students? as a not family defined thirty something family focusser?

And then today I have listened to professional broadcasters voice's crack with emotion of the loss of a voice on the radio who many (especially Mum & Paul) named as friend. and thought what people have most responded to was the gentleman and the generosity of spirit and wisdom they were offered - they were talking about Les, one of the weekend woodies.

it's in the offering of ourselves that the spirit is conveyed and the meaning is found - so the new day's resolution is just to say it!
