So, I'm free of any obligations for a few weeks, except for work of course. I am in for a busy January as there are potentially 3 outreach sessions for WL, one of which is all day.
My health issues have settled down, although I have more tests coming up. I am much calmer. I am also hopeful, but maybe a bit impatient. I have concerns for my friend, but at the same time I have a rather exciting vision for them I'd love to get confirmed. I am slightly annoyed with one particular person, but that problem seems to have dissipated and I will quickly forgive them. Last night I had a half hour ponder/meditate on "unity" and the lack of it in churches. I was thinking about where I could end up, and in what capacity.
These are just a few things buzzing round my head at the moment. I didn't go to church yesterday, I felt that the two outreach sessions were enough fellowship for the week, especially as I saw some old friends there...
...do I have any regrets? On leaving, no. For making some friendships more distant, oh definitely...
I don't think I'll go to church next week either. As much as I love carols, as regular readers may know I feel uncomfortable with reducing the Son of God to a child in a manger. Just the knowledge He came in poverty is enough. It was what He became that is important.
End of December/start of January, I'll look at a couple more churches, and hopefully, eventually, settle.
