A Better Expressed Version of What I Believe

I believe that Jesus came that everybody may have life in all its glorious fullness. He lived, died and was resurrected for that to be made possible. Jesus was a radical, a Rabbi who accepted those who weren’t good enough and empowered and enlivened them to tell the world that “not good enough” can be flipped on its head through a renewing of the mind and faith as tiny as a mustard seed. Jesus commissioned his followers to tell the world about him and his Father, about his Father’s love for the world and about his unspeakable and eternal glory.

A Small Story

One of my friends told me this little story from their life the other day:

They were out somewhere and they really needed to go to the toilet, so they went into the nearest one.

They took their time to relieve themselves and were glad to no longer have a bursting bladder, but they were a little perplexed by the sinks, for they could not work out how to turn them on. Fortunately, they soon enough came on and my friend assumed they automatically came on when needed so my friend cleaned their hands.

She was mightily pleased to have had such a successful trip to the loo when she left, and saw the ladies next door.

She had wondered why the sinks seemed a little low.

Stuck (metaphorically speaking, not a humorous anecdote, I'm sorry)

I'm thinking about what I want to do with my life. Fortunately no six-fingered man killed my Father when I was eleven. Unfortunately that leaves a certain hole in the velocity of my life.

So, I am considering. I thought about doing more writing, but I'm not sure I'm that good at it.

I thought about teaching, but what degree to do?

I thought about being an estate agent, then the credit ate a Crunchie.


I thought about being a banker.


I didn't really.

Honestly, I didn't. It has too much association with greed and self-serving, which is not what being a Christian is about (for me, anyhow; some right wingers might disagree but I think they need to read what Jesus said, though I'm now being a hypocrite since I am typing on a computer I haven't sold. I am rambling. I apologise. Well done if you kept up. Because I'm lost).

So, I have decided to continue as I am for now. Perhaps I will soon have a revelation. Perhaps not.


I am aware this blog wasn't about much in particular, but if you're stuck about what to do, so am I. Just so you know.
