new look
decided to go for a new look - got tired of the debugging message coming up again and again.
recent thoughts have been inspired by a preach by tim, two sundays ago. it was about how you realise when a houseguest, initially temporary, has actually moved in and is not intending to move on (the answer being their stuff gets gradually spread around your house and you find you are used to eating your breakfast with a view of their drying laundry). this was used as a metaphor for one's relationship with Jesus - eventually, His stuff is spread throughout your life, like an untidy houseguest, and you realise that He is not moving out.
applied to me this was of great comfort, because i tend to focus on the 'rooms' in my life that Jesus doesn't feature. as i do this, i fear that He will either never leave His socks to dry in that room, or He'll leave because i never let Him in. but no - i can say that there are some rooms in my life which have His stuff liberally strewn around the place, and despite my efforts at keeping Him out of various other areas, He is definitely here to stay.
