Do you lock your doors at night?
I do.
Not because I hate everyone beyond the walls of my home, but because I love everyone inside. And I want to steward my property well. I want to personally decide who I'm able and willing to share this little pocket of the earth I've been blessed with and the resources within.
While that reality is the lens through which I view much of my time here in the dirt, from faith to politics to finances to habits to friendships to relationships to tithing to vocation, etc. - it's also a lens for the work I'm committed to.
After all, I only have so much time and energy and leeway to coach and to write and to lead mentoring huddles and to spend time in the Word and to be alongside my family on this adventure. So, I have to shut and lock some doors in order to deeply steward those things I've committed to on the inside of this journey.
What doors do you need to keep closed, at least for now.
What's cool about closed doors is that it leaves us with time and space to work with whatever's in the room, yard or wide-open space we've committed to.
