antiquus postremo

'antiquus postremo' is latin for "ancient future". ancient-future is a term used by the so-called "postmodern church" or emerging church to envision what the future of the church might look like if we returned to modeling the early church as described in the book of acts. anyway, ancient future for this blog just means that I'm writing about what's happening right now in my life, kind of like saying "yesterday's tomorrow".

I was chasing the sunset last night (on my bicycle) and I was thinking that sometimes pursuing God is like that. He's faster and so much more amazing than we can imagine, but sometimes we catch him in a moment that takes our breath away. He's not predictable, and every time we see a glimpse of him it looks different. Then the moment is gone and we go on with our lives, but hopefully with a sense of awe and wonder, realizing that the same God who created the sunset just for us to enjoy also has a hand in every part and circumstance of our life.

So until I see him coming on the clouds, I'll keep chasing the sunset.
