I learned two things today.

1. I have small dreams. I was dreaming about things and goals that I probably could have somehow figured out by myself. Today I was reminded that I should be planning for things I cannot fathom, I need to be dreaming bigger than I am. I shouldn't be striving to accomplish tasks but to set up systems and processes that can stretch and flex as needed. Then I went outside to work on my lawn and I learned number two.

2. The people that really need Jesus aren't going to be all put together or quick fixes. They are going to be basketcases with deep problems. They aren't going to be ready for leadership in 3 short steps. They are going to be fractured. Somehow this is not troubling to me at all.
