Go where your best prayers take you

Wow. What a title for a book! Pete Greig's new book is off to the publishers and is called "Dirty Glory: Go where your best prayers take you".

Mind you, what a title for a life!

I want to be a praying person, going where my "best" prayers take me. I guess not to the places that are all beautiful and clean, but to the places which need His glory the most. The people who need to be scooped up into the Father's arms, dirt, tears and all.

I was reminded last night of the goodness of my God. He IS good. And also that when I feel I am just building sandcastles, which are so ephemeral, actually, I am building with gold, not sand. What a wonderful picture of how we build into our children's lives. Reminder: though it might feel like sand, it's gold.

Bye. I'm heading to where my best prayers take me.
