Kelly and I had a long talk last night. A lot of it centered what one should do with their life when there are many options. We actually talked about Katie Davis of Amazima Ministries in Uganda, Mother Teresa, and, even more particularly, some of our dear friends who have given themselves wholly to ministry with little or no hope of appreciable recognition from an ungrateful world, at least in this life. It is a difficult discussion. I think I might write more about this going forward. The upshot of last nights discussion is that you cannot push a rope. The only thing one can do when they are young, have options and do not know what to do is wait for direction from God, keep preparing and have a hopeful, thankful spirit.
