Seeking Balance

So I'm writing this from Starbucks this morning. I just happen to be sitting at one of those tables where one of the four legs are well, off a bit. Every time I shift my weight, the table wiggles; the coffee spills, luckily, not all over my suit.

Like a table or chair, four areas in each of our lives tend to be centered around the Physical, Social, Emotional and Spiritual activities--Walkers, Talkers, Criers, and Liars.

We all seek balance in our lives, and more likely than not, we all lean to one personality over another. I know guys who go overboard at the gym; I know some who are the life of the party, and those who who rather read Phychology Today...all day. And yes, even Spiritually, I know some who spiritualize everything....the devil made me do it!

Fact is none of us are the same, different combinations of life types make the world go round with difference. Cookie-cutter doesn't cut it.

Romans 12:6 (New International Version)
6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us.
Yes, I'm different than you and your different than your boss, spouse, sibling, or friend. We can't all be a hand or a foot. The Bible says ALL of us make up the church.

Darn...Just spilled on my shoe!
