LIFE IS A FUNNEL
J. Vernon McGree (1904-1988) writes that a simple way to remember this is that life is a funnel.
The wide way, the way that feels comfortable, easy, spacious, free … actually narrows into restrictions, slavery, death.

It’s true of any addiction. The “freedom” to engage in whatever it is whenever we want however we want only ends in slavery.
• The wide way narrows until it’s so tight you are trapped.
• The narrow way widens until you find yourself running free.

God is the only Master who makes life better and freer and bigger the longer we go His way.

Friends.
My grand vision for women’s ministry in this season: That we would be FRIENDS.
“No longer do I call you servants … but I have called you friends.”

“Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.”
—Jesus (John 15:13)
Friends of God. Friends of each other.

The Sail & the Anchor: I tend to speed ahead (like a sail in the wind), while @JPintheWord like an anchor slows us down ;-)
Was really fun reflecting on our similarities & differences serving in ministry together, sharing on the @HarborNetwork_ podcast » harbormedia.com/blog-roll/ep…

“To do ministry well, you need not only to love people, but like them. You need to give your heart to them.”

ONENESS.
What is it?
Over and over and over in Scripture we see this repeated theme of being ONE.
One mind, one heart, one Spirit, one Lord, one baptism—ONE body of Christ. 1/

So as we look *through the Word AT the world* we see a beautiful picture of what oneness is like.
