When we are crushed like grapes, we cannot not think of the wine we will become.
-Henri Nouwen

Ministry disappointments and disillusionment have created an unexpected "wine" over the years. One that has enabled me to relax, enjoy and give up on trying to save the world or at least feel like it's up to me.

I can't heal people but I can love them.
And in my loving them, hope that they will heal.

Soon as you set out to "fix" things or people, you end up with more problems than you saw at the first...be forewarned.

Reformers, revolutionaries, idealists...Pandora's box is in your hands, hope you can handle it.
