The middle of the day. In the hottest part of the day. A rest stop by an old field and a "random" conversation with a stranger also stopping there. Questions asked, thoughts exchanged, arrow questions that hit the truth. Truth revealed.
At the beginning of the day. On a rainy morning - this morning. In a comfortable chair and a purposeful conversation with a beloved friend. This old story is read and this piece of truth is the arrow that struck home to the heart:
"But there is a time coming - it has, in fact come - when what you're called will not matter and where you go to worship will not matter.
It's who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. God is sheer being itself - Spirit. Those who worship him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration."
John 4:23,24 The Message

Big sigh - that is so who I want to be, just me, all sides, all bits, everywhere, just me. Anj
