I feel back at a starting point.   Stripped down to the dirt, again.  Rich, brown, loamy, dark.

You God know the condition of my soul.

I am only beginning to see the dashboard indicators that reveal how I have been doing.

I am coming to the end of  myself – assessing the condition of my greedy souls unhealthy appetite for “more” is all part of the journey of life with You, of learning to really steward my life – and coming to a place where I do things in response to Your coaching rather than my presumption that I know what is best.

I have a real problem with this – presuming I see with Your eyes.

I am experiencing results of lack of restraint, the inability/poor ability to say NO…I am spread too thin…my soul is tired…as a king I have been leading poorly.

Every yes has a big footprint.

“It is a gift to be able to launch an inspiring vision.  But unless you manage it along the way, it can turn on you, and the vision consumes you.”  Leading on Empty page 21 by Wayne Cordeiro

I am sober-minded this morning – with hope.  Amazing grace!

“I will make all my mountains a way.”  Isaiah 49:11
