Ok, today is a day for "random" thoughts. 

Why is devotion or enthusiasm for the work of God seen as extreme, fanatical or misplaced? 

• What I often see is good and well-meaning people over play the cause of Christ by trying to get others to "believe" their message before knowing what the other person's worldview is. What makes this worse is they often do not even want to know. It becomes,"My way or no way"! This one sided position leaves others looking at the Christian view as narrow. The fact is; it is a narrow path. Yet the only way for anyone to find this path as a plausible option is to allow the discussion to become infused by the presence of the Holy Spirit working in the moment to bring understanding and conviction (1Corinth 3:7), and this happens when we are genuine in our motives and purpose while leaving our efforts to the will of God. Fanaticism consists in redoubling our effort when we have forgotten our aim.

So..... I am starting to blog and I have determined to bare the soul, howbeit with some reservation. Not because of lack of things to say or response to our culture. In the current state of the world affairs there is certainly no shortage of contradictions, irony, and sufferings mixed with the beauty of the human spirit renewed with the potential of God's presence and power. With "one more" voice added to the narrative,  I will seek to be honest with my perspective whether popular or considered narrow. I would rather walk with God in the light then go alone in the darkness.

At Life Speed is one person's desire to live in pursuit of Christ, every moment of every day of every year.

So.....
