Life is a Journey

I am a Star Wars fanatic and I am a follower of Christ. The similarities between the Christian Faith and the Jedi Order have caused books to be written and I find it to be a great way to present my personal journey of faith as Jedi/Christian.

I know I am no longer a Padawan but somewhere in the midst of my knighthood my path got blurred, my faith had weakened, and I had almost lost hold of the purpose of the Jedi. Now equipped with the love of a family, a renewed hope with a purpose I am trying to find the my way back to the Order. My goal and desire is to be a Knight worthy of the honor, blessing and title of the Order. I Knight walking by deeds, words and power as I strive and grow into what the Masters have called me to be.

My Journey has not been easy and I have stumbled, struggled,
faltered, fell, even at times given up. However the Force and many of the Orders Knights and Masters haven't given up on me. So this is were you can join me in the very midst of my journey. That is the purpose of this blog. To be a place where others can join me in the journey that lies in the places somewhere between Padawan And Master. I hope to share the insight and words that touch my soul and catch hold of my intellect and my heart. To expose the things I fear and those things that spur me forward. It is my journey and I welcome you along.

Miracle the post in working - 1/07/2011

I am still working through the blog post for the future regarding miracles. I have been hoping for a bit more response from others to help me develop a better picture of how people view and define a miracle. So I thought I would try to work up the definition of miracle from another place and see what people think.

World English Dictionary
miracle (ˈmɪrək ə l) [Click for IPA pronunciation guide]

n
1. an event that is contrary to the established laws of nature and attributed to a supernatural cause
2. any amazing or wonderful event
3. a person or thing that is a marvellous example of something: the bridge was a miracle of engineering
Which definition fits how you view a miracle. Also think about the following questions. Then choose your method of letting me know your opinion and thoughts.

Can miracles ever be ordinary? Do they happen regularly? Do they happen at all? What makes something a miracle?

Thanks,

Kenton
