I was driving around town this morning when I passed a church with this verse on their marquee: "Never tire of doing what is right." This is actually the second half of 2 Thessalonians 3:13. It's this part that always makes me think. Normally I would just think about what I'm NOT doing right or what I need to persevere in. Those thoughts definitely crossed my mind today as I drove past these words, but there's also a lot more to think about with this verse in today's day and age. What right? Who's right? Is there a right? Is right what is said in the bible? What if I interpret it this way? Any of those questions could provoke very different answers and emotions from different people. Just as this verse probably provokes different thoughts and emotions for various people. I honestly do not want to get into any of those today. I hope to at some point, but not right now. Just wanted to throw that out there as a kind of thought for the day...and I'll relate it to van life right here.

timing
Is van life the right way to do life? Is it the only right way to do life? What do you mean there's no real "right" way to live your own life? That last question is in anticipation of the answer for the other two questions. I think van life is A way to do life, but not the only way to do life. I think it is the "right" way for me to do life currently because that's what I feel I was being called/led/asked to do. I can only speak for me. You know better what's in your heart and what life you feel like you are being called/led/asked to lead. I can't tell you what is "right" or which path to take. Hope you all enjoyed this particularly ambiguous post on epistemology and it's relation to van life and 2 Thess. 3:13 :D
