Today is my birthday. 70 years in our North American calendar. Entering my 71st year. Seven decades past and more to go.
I have mentioned previously that I live in a decadal system. Every ten years I transition into something new. These last few months have proved to be such a ramp up time. My input in social media and other connections has been limited. Although I may scroll through (I prefer to not consider myself a troll since I do leave positive messaging every once in awhile) others thoughts, I haven’t really been revealing my own.
Unless you are looking at connection points that have me under obligation (they actually pay me). There I express direction and information that is designed for the purpose of that entity. You can find me at such places as www.kindersleysocial.ca and www.cscmc.ca. Or in reports prepared for Eston College library responsibilities. Or in sermons for various churches in the area.
Today is, for the sake of the art of my life (artificially), being set aside as the beginning of a new covenant with myself and toward others. I’m still working on what all goes into this new decade – publication, administration, entrepreneurial adventures, travel, . . . But one thing can be said is that I continue to move from one level of faith to the next level of faith (knowing that what we believe and how we express that really hits at the core of our lives – showing our hope for the future and, for me personally, my love for this God shaped, Jesus infected, Holy Spirit revealed world).
