16

"Every human wish dream that is injected into the Christian community is a hindrance to genuine community and must be banished if genuine community is to survive. He who loves his dream of community more than the community itself becomes a destroyer of the latter, even though his personal intentions may be ever so honest and earnest and sacrificial."
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life Together

Today was yet another reminder that imagined futures can hinder how I take in reality. I did not react the best today. Thank God for forgiveness and redemption.
