WOW!
from http://brokenstainedglass.typepad.com/broken_stained_glass/
Recently, I stumbled across a Donald Miller quote from his book 'Through Painted Deserts' that I find poignant to our current situation. It's almost as if Don was speaking directly to us when he said this:
"We get one story, you and I, and one story alone.
God has established the elements, the setting, and the climax and the resolution.
It would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn't it?
It might be time for you to go. It might be time to change, to shine out.
I want to repeat one word for you:
Leave.
Roll the word around on your tongue for a bit.
It is a beautiful word, isn't it?
So strong and forceful, the way you have always wanted to be.
And you will not be alone.
You have never been alone.
Don't worry.
Everything will still be here when you get back.
It is you who will have changed."
