And he said to the vinedresser, ‘Look, for three years now I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. Cut it down. Why should it use up the ground?’ And he answered him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put on manure. Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.’” <a href=http://tinyurl.com/2kvnd8>Luke 13.6-9</a>Briannoreply@blogger.comBlogger141125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4237484144219715290.post-50274816053745871582009-06-01T00:01:00.000-05:002009-06-01T00:01:04.700-05:002009-06-01T00:01:04.700-05:00

Lately we've been twirling the dance floor of spring severe weather with a dance partner that won't let us take a break and sit one out. It seems that the outbreaks have occurred either to disrupt the school day or to disrupt a night's sleep. Being a mild weather geek who lives in a garden home with no basement, this has given me no shortage of anxiety. I'm almost ready to call an end to spring <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SanctusStercora/~4/Ze3TUQmcXF4" height="1" width="1"/>

These days, it doesn't take long for numerically-themed discussions to reach the stratosphere: the thousand-thousand, or million, and beyond.Consider these numbers:Birmingham's mayor wants to spend almost one million dollars to provide [irony]free[/irony] bus rides for the summer.Jefferson County's sewer system is over three billion dollars in debt, threatening to bankrupt the county.President <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SanctusStercora/~4/CLbj3O7R3Hk" height="1" width="1"/>

If you are going to invite people to your wedding you ought to make the thing memorable. I've been to several weddings where this advice was not heeded. I would tell you some things about them, but I don't remember.I went to a wedding one New Year's eve. The pastor pronounced the couple man and wife at the stroke of midnight. They are now divorced, but I still remember.I went to an engagement <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SanctusStercora/~4/JuZicXOgvc0" height="1" width="1"/>

I embarked on a journey through The Chronicles of Narnia this week, and I thought I'd read them in chronological order rather than in published order.Apparently that is wrong. Very, very wrong. So I'll just pretend that I don't know where the wood for the wardrobe came from or how the lamp post got there or who Digory Kirke grows up to be.Please accept my apologies if I've offended anyone.

I'm taking a six-week course on spiritual formation. The text for the class is Robert Mulholland's Invitation to a Journey: A Roadmap for Spiritual Formation. Mulholland's definition of spiritual formation is "the process of being conformed to the likeness of Christ for the sake of others." Part of his approach to spiritual formation is the idea that we all tend to "do" spiritual formation <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SanctusStercora/~4/DiWz5a9pxBw" height="1" width="1"/>
