I have decided to revive this long dormant blog. I probably won't post more than once or twice in a week, yet I have recently felt the need to take this back up again. I just finished a unit of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE), in which I was affirmed in several ways, including sharing my thoughts. This is an outgrowth of that affirmation. Tonight's post will not be long, for it is merely introductory, a teaser if you will, though some postings may very well be as I share my thoughts and opinions on life. Feel free to contribute, offer your opinion, criticism, whatever. I only ask that you be civil and reasoned.
Tonight, I leave this little excerpt from Terrence Malick's movie "The Tree of Life." It reminds me of Psalm 1, or St. Paul in Galatians talking of the Fruits of the Spirit. Pointing to one way of living our lives, a way that turns inward, that ultimately destroys us. Then it points to a still a more excellent way, the way of grace, the way of life.

What are your thoughts? How have you seen this lived out? Feel free to share.
