Chaos? Desert? Confusion? Concern? Trial?

The apostle Pauls says he has learned to be content no matter what. Wow. He went through it all - elevation of personal status to prison, status to disdain. He was a chief persecutor of Christians, and radically found Jesus and peace. It wasn't easy for him either! (Just read Acts and Romans.)

As we align our purpose with God's purpose for us (which by the way is always for our best) and quit seeking external manifestation and validation, we can find a deep sense of joy, peace and contentment. Will we take the Bible at its word? We are promised this, and to stand on this doesn't minimize our humanity or struggles.

This conversation with Kari Levang encourages a disciplined approach to faith without legalism. It encourages practice with grace. It showcases how personal experience and surrender to the Holy Spirit can foster a profound desire for God, worship and his word.

Kari and I chat about her current chaos and reality, and about our continued revelation about our own purpose in similar seasons of life with our ages (mid 50s), but wildly different seasons in circumstance. We are both being driven to our knees in new ways, and finding a greater sense of peace and purpose.
