Knights Becoming and a Lady in Waiting

The Great Adventure

I am not an adventurous person.  I like to try new things, mostly, but bungee jumping, mountain climbing, new experiences and new people just generally are not my thing.

Lately, though, I've had many people tell me that "it's always an adventure with you and your crew, isn't it?"  Huh?

I never really thought of my life as an adventure.  I mean, if I could, I'd be on the "Mountaintop" with Amy Grant.  I'd be hiding in some distant garden in Tibet or Colorado or something.

Steven Curtis Chapman refers to Christian life as "The Great Adventure," though.  I guess it really is an adventure.  I mean, only on an adventure would I go where I hadn't already planned things out.  But the Bible says:

9However, as it is written:
   "No eye has seen,
      no ear has heard,
   no mind has conceived
   what God has prepared for those who love him"^[a]—

1 Corinthians 2:9

Okay, if I haven't seen it, heard it, or even dreamed of it (and I've dreamed up a lot of stuff), then it truly MUST be an adventure.

So I hope you'll excuse me for the "short" post, but I have an adventure to embark on.  I'll be back later to let you know how it went.
