Do we allow our religion to shape us into God's perception of "what needs to happen" or do we shape our religion to fit into what we think needs to happen? I would love your thoughts...
Funny, before clicking on this one I saw your "house" quote at the bottom of the page. I love that quote and another story told by Hugh B. Brown about the currant bush. It's a classic.
Personally, I try to let God be the gardener as much as I can. I've thought in the past that it would be nice to hand the bishop my list of dream callings, but my first thought on receiving one of those recently I wondered if I would stretch as much in that as I would in something that I wouldn't normally choose. The more I've thought about it I think there will be plenty of ways I will, but only time will tell.
