Sometimes it can be really hard in our fast paced society to slow ourselves down enough to begin to listen to God's voice. The dilemma exists in my position as well. To be a follower of Christ is to emulate Him. When He went off alone into the desert to pray, He was teaching a valuable lesson.
Jon ForemanI think of myself as more of a lover rather than a fighter, but sometimes you have to fight for what you love.
Jon ForemanCalling has this weight that somehow we think that your calling is fixed. That your calling is this line that youโve finally found and now you're on that track and thatโs what youโre gonna do forever and maybe that's the case. But I feel like calling has much more to to do with the moment that youโre in.
Jon ForemanI am often tempted to think of success in terms that are defined by others: records sold, popularity gained, album reviews, etc. These are impossible demands, however, and they can never be satisfied. Letting finite others define our worth is a horrible way to live. Only the Infinite Other [God] has the authority to do this.
