This Journey

Thoughts, rants, prayers, sermons I'll never give and other stuff gathered as I make my way through this life.

interesting phenomenon…not

I find that I am anxious and depressed about leading worship tomorrow. Could it be that knowing no matter what I do people will evaluate it as crap (or at best, as a ‘funeral dirge’ meant only to irritate or depress them?)

Intelletually, I know this is
1) natural given Thursday night’s conversation;
2) a trap;
3) putting too much store in what others think verses how I know I’m doing.

Just being able to focus and identify on feelings doesn’t make them ‘go away’.

A paradox wrapped in an enigma playing the accordion. I'm a sinner-saint, child of God working at the cross-roads of church and world. A Deaconess called to connect people living near the center with people on the edge and to help your life sing (literally and figuratively) while doing it. People don't always get the deaconess part. Could be the swearing, the corporate job, or the wine.
