Today, our staff met for prayer and communion. We opened with a couple of readings from Scripture and then we had communion with grape soda and cheese popcorn. I used this as an opportunity to challenge our interns (who are all young) to consider the purpose and meaning of “devotional time” and “communion.”
Then, we came back to the office and my interns challenged me that my existing blog wasn’t “user friendly.” Because I learn from them as much as they learn from me, I am moving my blog this new site http://kevinlcrow.wordpress.com/. And, I was introduced to twitter. I have had an account for about a decade and have 0 posts.
There is an old saying… “if you keep doing what you have always done, you will get what you always got.”
As an old dog (or at least middle age), I have had a great run. What I have gotten to this point is a wonderful relationship with my wife and kids, a great church and a healthy body. But, part of the reason that I have these blessings is that I have always been willing to fix what was broken… often before it broke!
My conversations with some late teens has convinced me that I have grown comfortable in my patterns. When I was younger, one of my favorite verses was, “ See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?!“ (Isa 43:19)
It is time to embrace the NEW thing God is doing. I am going to stop kicking, screaming and digging in my heels… Welcome Kevin Crow to the 21st Century!
