on my mind...

"There are some things in life, and they may be the most important things, that we cannot know by research or reflection, but only by committing ourselves. We must dare in order to know. Life is full of situations to which I can respond not with part of myself but only with commitment of my whole being." - J.H. Oldham

To know for certain, to control, to have assurance aside from faith, these are all faults that the dead man in us all screams for. Backed by the technological advances of man that has created a way of living allowing us to basically be in control of all situations, we are helpless when it comes to stepping out in faith. Why do we feel, do I feel, the need to know before acting?

Balance, a balance beam, a tight rope... that which we are called to walk, in every area of life, or as Jesus said, "a narrow path."

"Be wise as serpents but innocent as doves..."

Jesus lead on...
