Ecc 8:6  Life is hard, but there is a time and a place for everything,

Life is hard. It goes through ups and downs, “swings and roundabouts”, but it is essentially hard.

But there is hard, and there is really hard. I find responsibility hard, but I find making choices that other people don’t like *really* hard. I find raising children hard, and I find balancing the egos and hurts and preconceptions of parents and siblings *really* hard.

I find pastoring my flock hard; I find pastoring those who would be leaders *really* hard.

I find leading without complaint hard. I find following without complaint *really* hard.

Thank God, I don’t have to be more than I am.

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2Co 12:9-10

Welcome to my siyach. I am starting the discipline of journaling (offline) – my intention is daily We shall see. I am not sure if my online journal shall keep pace, or differ.

But the reason for keeping an online AND offline journal is simple – this one lets YOU comment too.
