• Bird Poop


    So you finally found your dream home site! 

    You imagine sitting in the living room looking through that plate glass window at the snow-capped mountains and pristine lake below, so you call a builder who makes it happen! 

    And the first day you move in, you wake up, brew a cup of coffee, sit down in your favorite chair and look out at that lake when it happens, 

    A bird flies by and poops in the middle of your window! 

    You get up and clean it off, then the same thing happens the next day, and the next, and before you know it, you're no longer paying attention to the view, but the poop. 

    Since when has cleaning the poop become our most important job? Instead of paying attention to the view - that pristine view, the reason you built the house in the first place. 

    This Sunday, as we begin the season after Pentecost, the long green season that will take us all the way up through Advent, we run headlong into a group  religious leaders that will oppose Jesus at every turn. While they serve God and purport to know God, they fall short when they put tradition and career ahead of revelation.

    Yes, Jesus is here to reveal many things, one of the most important is for you and I to stay open to change.

    Don't let the insignificant and unimportant keep you from embracing the big picture! Shrug it off, don't pay it no mind, the main thing is keeping the main thing, the main thing!
