How is your Stress?
A typical concert piano has over 240 strings that, when tuned and tightened, create a pull of 40,000 pounds on the frame. Without the tension, there would be no beautiful music. Yet, too much exerted pressure can cause the piano to crack and will destroy its sound. The piano models a good strategy for stress. (Especially since Americans consume 20,000 pounds of aspirin a year). Balance in work, exercise, diet, recreation, worship, and relationships keeps us in harmony. Over-commitments can knock us out of tune and rob the music from our lives.

Well stated. I have a question that is totally unrelated. What is your opinion of the book The Ragamuffin Gospel and other works by Brennan Manning? Do you think he is on track? Is he biblical or new agey?
I have read his book a few years ago, and he is definitely hitting a cord amongst the 20 somethings. His whole emphasis of bringing the gospel back to its true purpose and intention is needed and well stated.
