Shrinking in my own strength and wisdom and EXPANDING in the understanding of what God can do in and through the person who lives and moves in faith.

Chale Island, a paradise.
Staff here say that Americans seldom come here. Most tourists are European.We are now at a beach hotel, I am three floors up sleeping on a balcony overlooking the beautiful Indian Ocean. Strong ocean breezes and sound of high tide dashing against the shore. Hotel has 25% occupancy because of terrorism. Rates are down. 75 dollars for a night which includes lavish food. Sad for them; good for us.
Hotel is on an island. We arrived here at low tide on a tractor and wagon.
I am a board certified psychiatrist (shrink).I am also a pastor. My faith,not my professional credentials,defines me. Therefore I say that I am an 'expander' not a 'shrink'.
My sense of the significance of what I can do in my own strength has shrunk over the years. My awareness of what Christ can do in the person yielded to His will has expanded over the years.
