Warming My Cocoa

Two Sundays into a new ministry at Cocoa.  It seems like the last two weeks has been boxes, boxes, and more boxes.  I moved from one house to another and at the same time unpacked into a new office.  One question keeps coming up.  "Where did I get all this stuff??"  I'm not a candidate for the tv show about hoarders but still.  I look at Queen Latifah's CD Travelin Light and think to myself, "Amen." 


Moving does have me thankful though.  I find myself paring down.  I find myself pondering how much I can do without.  I find myself needing to, and actually being, more flexible.  And patient. 


I bet there are a lot of us who are in some kind of transition -- between jobs, life stages, changing relationships with friends or partners.  Cocoa Pres is in transition too.  Whether it is our personal lives or our church life, I really do hope for all of us that there is a way for thankfulness and good changes to peek through.  May it be so.


Peace.
