I hate it when the readings and one's inspiration aren't quite in sync.

I'm going for Hebrews this week; 'faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.' I want to get them thinking a little bit about what they actually hope for, like really hope, enough to make choices in line with it. Because I think people are often kind of passive about that.

I hear you. We are often myopic, and the truly good things sometimes take effort and time.
