Chasing the Wind

News. Faith. Nonsense.

Muse

Muse. I need a good muse.

I spent so much traveling time at the end of last year, I just couldn’t really take the time to post anything. On the road it’s hard enough since internet access and free time is limited. When I got back, I sort of decompressed and didn’t write anything. Just paying bills, going to work, blah blah blah. I’ve even been a bit under the weather, which is unusual for me. I had a stomach pain a couple of weeks ago, and this week I have this most annoying crick in the left shoulder blade area.

But I haven’t forgotten I like to write, spew stuff out of my brain. I just haven’t figured out where to start.

I see this morning Obama is drawing big crowds in San Antonio. I might vote for him in the Texas primaries. Not because I think he’d be a good president, but because I think it would be so easy for McCain to beat him.

Other than that… well, I need a muse. Or rest, I dunno which. There will be a bible study posted early next week on Genesis 25-27, so if you want to read ahead and tell me who you think best exemplifies Godly character (Isaac, Rebekkah, Jacob, Esau), I’d appreciate it.

    I think the point is that of all the patriarchs, NONE of them exemplifies Godly character. Thus, we should not look to them as examples of conduct. Rather, we should look to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. We should not seek to be like them, but rather seek what they sought.

    Hebrews 11:10

    As soon as the sun is back shining regularly, I’ll bet your muse will instantly appear. Mine does.

    Doug, you gave me plenty to think about, thanks. My bible study’s posted now.

    And Jennifer… I dunno. The last time I saw my muse, her bags were packed and she was muttering, “There’s something very, very wrong with that man. ” 🙂

About Me

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
