Forgive me. This post does not follow my form. I have not been able to write the past few days for a number of reasons, none necessarily being good. It simply hasn't happened. Nonetheless, I have some thoughts:
We need to learn from children.
We should be graceful and merciful before we make judgments.
Augustine of Hippo began the demise of practical theology in the West. We still feel his sting today. But, perhaps, he was a man of his time. (Note my observation above.)
Assuming makes an ass out of you and me. Especially me.
I need to learn how to open up more directly.
Questions need to be asked. And not out of obligation. They flow from genuine concern and desire to know. In short, questions are formed out of love.
It is OK to experience a wide range of emotions. Eventually, though, they should balance.
I can't figure everything out on my own.
Black magic women exist. Don't ignore them, but don't let them destroy you. (I suppose black magic men exist, too. I hope I'm not one.)
Repent.
Be confused and still love. End with love.
