09/30/2003 Entry: "New hope"
IreneQ has been feeling discouraged but has found that there's hope yet. Even in mess and apparent immobility.
My walk with God has never ever looked like a straight line. Backwards, forwards, up and down, stops and starts, yes, but never straightforward exponential progress. It's something I used to worry about, especially when preachers say things like, "If you're not moving forward, you're backsliding already! There's no such thing as being stagnant when it comes to the Christian life!" Eek!Eek! indeed. Preachers take warning - sometimes the things we say intending to encourage can be heard very negatively.
