'becoming who you are' by james martin was commended to me by cliff knighten, a friend, mentor, and until very recently, the pastor of our little community we've been calling trinity house. i read the book in one sitting (okay, i was supine) tonight. the first book i've read in three or four months. the read reminded me of my own hopes to expose to light my true self, reminded me of all i do that props up my false self, and succinctly offered 'elevator-length' definintions for both. anyway, a good, quick read.
i'll post more about our community soon, and will try to hyperlink to any of cliff's future posts about his continuing journey of faith — becoming who he is.
it's 1:18 am, so pamela down in nicaragua has lived through her first election day; we're anxious to hear how that went. ("Early election results in Nicaragua suggest former Marxist revolutionary Daniel Ortega could return to power as president after 16 years.")
i'm anxious to hear about trinity house...
here in nicaragua, we are still waiting for the official count to be completed--as of right now, 40% of the vote has been counted, with Ortega maintaining his 8% advantage over the nearest candidate. since my last blog post, a sense of restlessness has been brewing--just in the last hour, it was reported that the other political parties want a recount of managua, while the sandinistas are calling for the results to be finalized and ortega declared the winner. please pray for the peace of the city...
