After writing the last post I noticed my last line referenced "your spiritual life" as if it is separate from the rest. Yet another symptom of what the post was about. We segment our lives and box God and Church in a different area than everything else. I even talked about it that way when trying to make the point that we need to be plugged into God at all times. Our culture teaches us to do that.
It drives me crazy when I hear politicians or news commentators questioning whether someone's beliefs should influence their vote or how they act if part of the government. Of course it should. If it does not then you must not really believe that. It is more of a convenient idea that feels good, but then you fall back to your true beliefs when called to act.

- I like life, and I love God. I try to see how He is moving in every situation, looking beyond the surface to the "super" natural. Far from perfect - but trying to be near to His heart.
