And being the first day I’ve felt terrible all day. No energy. Pushed it too far yesterday. And more than anything I want to do nothing and watch brainless TV, as my brain isn’t in a place to think, do or talk to people. If I’m honest I don’t even feel like reading Scripture or praying, although maybe it would do me good.
But my discovery today is how much we as humans crave story. TV is story. Movies are story. Books are story. We long for story. But even more than that we long to be part of one–a story bigger than ourselves. We long to be an influential player in the story. People can and do change the world all the time and on large scales. But most of us wonder how our mark on the world will be made.
So I’m praying today. And asking God what is my part in His story.
