I was thinking of the different blogs I maintain and the different facets of my life that are representative by those blogs or sites. I also think of the different friends I have, each one that may have a different view of life and some that are very disinterested in any form of Chrisitianity. Some people can present themselves the same way no matter what company they are in. At this time, I cannot, but I am learning too. I am slowly learning to merge all of who I am into what God created me to be. I was thinking of how excel merges all the cells into one big one, so I started writing down some of the major roles I play in life and my different identities. When I wanted to get the warning alert message graphic above for this blog, I noticed that the left hand cell would be the only data left. I knew this from working with Excel before, but I didn’t think about it this time when I was putting different roles in the cells. So after I merged who I am into one person I got this:
This doesn’t mean that I do not still do those roles and have those other identities, but my faith guides them and I find new joys with those roles. As a surfer back in the day: “I once worshiped the waves, now I worship the source of the waves, the wind, and the ocean.”
