VTS 07 Summer CPE

A place where I, Steve, can selfishly blog and hopefully have some friends along with me. Our focus this summer will be dealing with CPE (Church Punishes Everyone) and the trauma that goes with being a chaplain, being in community, and group process/group think. All are invited, and if you've run across us please do jump aboard.

Bad Blogger

Ok i'll admit it, I'm lazy. Well maybe not lazy, but at least a creature of habit. It took me but one day to fall out of the blogging habit, and it'll take me weeks to get back into it. Reading over the litany for healing this morning I couldn't help but be struck by the concluding collect.

Almighty God, giver of life and health: Send your blessing on all who are sick, and upon those who minister to them, that all weakness may be vanquished by the triumph of the risen Christ; who lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen.

My weakness right now is the business of everyday life. Between 42.5 hrs a week of CPE, move-in ministry, a wife, some exercise, and the semblance of a social life I find myself pretty dang busy. Prayer and quiet time are built into my day at CPE so that feels like its going well, but I find myself craving an outlet for what's going on. I guess that's why I setup this blog, so why the heck don't I use it??? Well, becuase I'm busy of course. So I guess as I pray this collect I'm asking my weakness of business will be vanquished by Christ. Wouldn't that be cool?
