ick post

Sometimes, I just want to write in order to publish. Like right now. I just have the need to click post. I don't really have something important to say - which is a problem for an eager "publisher." If you want people to grow, don't post junk. Don't "do as I do." If I post junk and you recognize it as such, say something. Comment.

;)
Seeking the great post,
Hoping to write the most
Incredible legible piece,
Bringing my strivings to cease,
But it's all just vanity,
That's making me mad at me,
To glorify myself,
Is the deceiving of the enemy,
It's to enter his service in slavery...

Psalm 4

ME:
Answer me when I call to you,
O my righteous God.
Give me relief from my distress;
be merciful to me and hear my prayer.

LORD
2 How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame [c] ?
How long will you love delusions and seek false gods [d] ?
Selah
good book right now...Leading from the Second Chair (Bonem and Patterson)...I received it last summer but never got around to reading it. It examines the few paradoxes involved in leading from a "second-chair" position (when one is a leader in an organization but not the primary vision caster...and they do not have the final say).
