BREAKING THROUGH THE WALL
Today at work I was thinking about my boss. No I do not think about my boss that much save that he is a godly man and blessed indeed. During break the other day he came in and told us about how he is going to China soon to meet with the manager of a factory who will be producing some corbels for him. He's been studying up on business styles in China and learned that it is customary to exchange gifts at the conclusion of the arrangement so Leon is planning on giving him a gold digging kit and a book that explains the gospel. Leon plans on giving it to him to read so that the manager can learn Leon's values and standards in his business decisions and personal life. He has traveled frequently to many different countries on business trips.Its always a blessing to see God use people mightily for His Kingdom. Sometimes I get easily frustrated and wonder what God is doing in my life. It seems like He moves slower than molasses around me while others he just *poofs* instantly changes and uses mightily. So today I was wondering if there was anything in my life blocking God. I am still pondering different areas and nothing concrete has jumped out waving red flags. In the end, I hope that the purpose of my life is to be more than just a warning to others.
If there was something, not sin, hindering your walk, would you sacrifice it? What is it? Where is the line between spirit of the law versus letter (legalism)?

I'm sorry Will, but Bryan's Mr. Burns impression is somewhat better. Never fret, yours is still *excellent* also.
In answer your quarter-life crisis pondering, I have found that my expectations are always hindering me from walking in the way God has for me. His ways are higher than my ways and in those times of my life when I finally do give over my expectations, he proves to give me something that exceeds them.
Hey Will! I'm actually going to give yo ua call in the VERY near future, I promise! We need to get together before I go! I've just been busy trying to get ready to go.
