		<description>Yes, Relevant!  Used by God!  A Catalyst!  Unknowingly... and sometimes knowingly.  These are good words, Amy.  Thank you for penning them.  It so reminds me about that book... The Anonymous Years.</description>

		<description>You reminded me of something I read last night. In Visioneering, Andy Stanley talks about the mundane things in life in light of vision:
&lt;blockquote&gt;Vision gives significance to the otherwise meaningless details of our lives. And let&#039;s face it, much of what we do doesn&#039;t appear to matter much when evaluated apart from some larger context or purpose.
But take the minutia of this very day, drop it into the cauldron of a God-ordained vision, stir them around, and suddenly there is purpose! Meaning! Adrenaline!
It is the difference between filling bags with dirt and building a dike in order to save a town. There&#039;s nothing glamorous or fulfilling about filling bags with dirt. Bur saving a city is another thing altogether. Building a dike gives meaning to the chore of filling bags with dirt. And so it is with vision.
Too many time the routines of life begin to feel like shoveling dirt. But take those same routines, those same responsibilities, and view them through the lens of vision and everything looks different. Vision brings your world into focus. Vision brings order to chaos. A clear vision enables you to see everything differently.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Now if only I knew the vision, I&#039;d be good to go. ;)</description>

		<description>Your comment about chance is pretty funny. I read years ago this thing (which I might agree with) that those who believe in free will actually believe in chance and therefore are nothing more than atheists. 

I think 20/20 lets you look back though and see how active he has always been in your life, every detail, including me writing this comment on your blog. 

BTW Amy, you have something on your lip</description>
