About Me

My photo
I am a pastor and a clinical psychotherapist. My life's passion is defining healthiness from a human perspective and paralleling it to the holiness of God, divine perspective. Shifting perspectives creates a paradigm that is alongside of rather than over and against. The parakalein of God and the paradoxes of humanity are redefined. Humanity is all about winning and yet we are losing ground everywhere. Divinity is all about letting go of the desire to win and the fear of loss. The Divine embraces the world with loving care regardless of anything.

What a mess, the message of the mess

Posted by Don Paine



What a mess.
Imagine Joseph and Mary walking out into that smelly nature infested stable.  They had learned that God was in this and with them no matter what.  I imagine Joseph telling her not to worry that it will all work out.  Another part of me imagines that it was Marry the one pregnant and uncomfortable that was reassuring the Joseph who was feeling badly, not to worry that it will all work out.  Maybe they were speaking this truth into each other’s life.  It was and is true.

No matter how messy it is in your life, the message is the same:  the I will be with you God will be with you no matter what. 

God will be with you!
