Proverbs 18:1

“He who separates himself, seeks his own desire.”

Idiot School November

#9 Be a Loner, stay hidden

Like a pack of gazelle, when hunted by the mighty Lion, scatter from the pack when in trouble, to make it easier on the lion to have you for brunch. I

ndividualism is where real life resides, togetherness is for losers

People in your life will want things from you, need things from you, recoil from your sin, push back on your ideas, speak into your decisions, make you not weird…who wants that?

Be a loner. Stay hidden. Make sure everyone is kept at arms length and no one ever quite knows what is going on in your world or under the hood of your life.

Makes “seeking your own selfish desires” way easier.

Plus, “seeking your own desires” will create so much beauty, order and redemptive power in you and through your life. Spouses love it, kids respect it, friends want more of it and God is honored by it.

A group of faithful friends knowing your business, walking with you, with permission to speak into your life… people you have “deputized” to speak truth about you, to you…and who speak words of encouragement and blessing over you that fan the flames of courage and push you toward greatness…screw that. Bunch of freaks and psychos for sure.

Stay alone. Stay awesome.

Grindforth!

November “Idiot School”, all month long, baby.
