a big question...?

I'm having a catch-up session this morning on some of my blogging since the weather conditions did not allow us to have church this morning. I thought it would be a good time for me to sort of think through and write about some of the things I've been reading...

One of the books I've just finished is called "Under The Overpass." It is the story of two friends taking a challenge to spend some time living on the streets... to experience what is it like to live the life on those in need that we so easily neglect. The stories of their experiences are a light that leads to great challenges for us... making the needs of others personal at some level...

In the end the book boils things down to this big question for us... a reality-ratlling question...

"What would I do during my day or in my life for God if I wasn't concerned with what I wear, what I eat, where I sleep, what I own, what people think of me, or what discomforts I face?"
