It depends on what is your sanctioned load if it iKW or less, then u must inform CESCAnswered by rajan, 04 May '12 05:15 pm
May not be necessary. But if you are having a single phase connection then it is advisable to get a three phase connection before installing an AC. Or if the meter provided is of lower load then you may be required to change the meter to handle higher load for which you may have to apply to CESC.Answered by Shyam, 04 May '12 04:18 pm
And what is CESCAnswered by rekha agarwal, 04 May '12 04:11 pm

Hitachi ships Travelstar 7K200 encrypted hard drive
Hitachi Global Storage Technologies has begun volume shipment of the Travelstar 7K200, a high-capacity, high-performance laptop hard drive with new optional data encryption technology. The new drive features up to 200GB capacity, a 22 per cent overall performance improvement over its predecessor, and improved shock tolerance, …
But is it manageable?
A really nice feature, but this may only be interesting for smaller businesses.
I suspect many large businesses would prefer an encryption system they can manage (e.g. enforce password changes, reset passwords for users, etc) so that the data is secure, but the risk of users losing passwords (not uncommon) is minimised. An added bonus of a software implementation is that you can use your remote system management tools to enforce the disk encryption and expand it to cover things like external storage (USB keys)
"Technical layperson"?
"software encryption, which is generally not well understood by the technical layperson"
Is this a layperson who is technical (an oxymoron)
Or a person who is unversed technically (a tautology)?
Hitachi click of death
[Sarcasm] Well at least this technology allows drives to be RMAed without giving Hitachi sensitive info. If their drives still have a propensity to suffer from "click of death", this could prove invaluable. [/Sarcasm]
So, this means that is will be easier to get rid of all that pesky pr0n on the executive's laptops?
Why haven't drives done this before?
Seems to me this should be a default option on pretty much any hard-drive - whether laptop or desktop. Let the bios enforce the password and the disk is automatically secure against casual theft (of course, if the No Such Agency and its friends want to know, they're going to be able to apply the necessary de-encryption effort anyway) and automatically becomes usable irrespective of OS - or even as shared areas between two OSs on the same machine.
Mind you, I'd like to see how the bios does the password/phrase.
I'm sorry, is this prnewswire.co.uk?
I'm wondering how useful a press release from a PR company is in evaluating this product.
"Sageza's Go-to-Market services provide clear messages to key audiences about product launches"
SO let me get this straight...my laptop sends unencrypted data down the sata cable to the drive, which then encrypts it and stores it. I request the data and the drive unencrypts it and sends the unencrypted data back up the sata cable.
Have they offered any proof that this is actually happening? If not I have a flying car you may be interested in. It will only take off when you're inside and flies at an altitude of about a foot ;o)
Key management
I may be missing an important aspect here, and that is key management. That is, the encryption takes place on the drive, and the drive holds the key (I'm guessing) until told to forget it. So where does theft protection come in? If someone steals my laptop, can they read the drive unless they purposefully wipe it out? That's absurd.
Either this press release, er, hardware review is missing some important information (such as a password required at startup for the drive to correctly read its contents or other key management scheme), or this feature is, well, useless.
DRM anyone?
Will this become part of compnant hardware based DRM/CP?
Great way to lose data forever
Imagine this: you drop the laptop and damage the motherboard, but the drive is OK.
You move the drive to another machine, but you can't read the drive because you don't have the AES key (it's in the BIOS of the dead machine) or the new machine doesn't support this kind of drive.
Bye-bye data. Not good.
Is this new? Is this PRnewswire?
Well yes, those questions asked already are good questions.
The ATA-3 spec included password-protected drives, and that was some considerable time ago. Password protected drives would seem to offer an opportunity to easily prevent unauthorised access to data, when sensibly implemented by an organisation with a clue. The spec also included a "master" password to cover the "I've forgotten my password" scenario. Very few people know about this capability, and/or very few products used it - but the recent outbreak of clueless organisations who have lost unprotected laptops may make it suddenly more interesting.
One vendor offering this capability, back in 1998, was Compaq, who called it DriveLock. A Compaq technical whitepaper on DriveLock can be found ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/supportinformation/papers/na118a0598.pdf
The HP Compaq nx6125 which I bought a couple of years ago has DriveLock; I don't know whether it's in today's HP range or whether other vendors offer similar functionality, but it seems like a fairly basic requirement for a business-class notebook in an organisation with a clue.
One might hope that a competent "industry analyst" article might provide this kind of historical and market background, but a vendor-sponsored pure-PR piece might not be expected to do so.

text: Richard Sherman Entitled to Free Speech Like Phil Robertson Print article Send a Tip by Kevin Scholla 20 Jan 2014 post a comment For the second time in franchise history, the Seattle Seahawks are going to the Super Bowl. Instead of dissecting potential match-ups against the Denver Broncos however, the big story immediately following the game focused on some comments from one of Seattle's best players. With his team clinging to a six-point lead late in the contest, Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman came up with a huge play. The all-world cover man tipped a Colin Kaepernick end zone pass into the hands of Seahawks teammate Malcolm Smith. The interception would seal the deal and punch Seattle's ticket to the Meadowlands. After the game Sherman had a lot to say about the play, especially the intended receiver, San Francisco's Michael Crabtree. "Well I'm the best corner in the game," Sherman yelled at FOX reporter Erin Andrews. "When you try me with a sorry receiver like Crabtree that's the result you're going to get. Don't you ever talk about me." Andrews asked Sherman who was talking about him, and Sherman hollered "Crabtree!" Sherman and Crabtree had a war of words throughout the week leading up to the NFC Championship game. Sherman continued his rant on the 49ers wide out after the initial comments to Andrews, referring to Crabtree as "mediocre" to ESPN's Ed Werder. He then repeatedly called Crabtree "mediocre" at the postgame press conference. Obviously Sherman and Crabtree have some friction between them. Their respective teams aren't exactly bosom buddies either. The rivalry is enhanced because of this. Yet, after Sherman's explosive commentary, I was disappointed to see the reaction of so many fans on social media. Many of the same people who defended Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson after he was blasted by the media and suspended by A&E for simply expressing his religious beliefs were expressing disappointment in Sherman's words. They called his comments "unsportsmanlike" and "classless." They called him a "jerk". One post read, "Sherman is the worst possible representation of the Seahawks". Really? Calm down, folks. You'd think the man spiked a baby after the victory. He's talking trash against an opponent. It happens all the time. Do you not see the obvious smirk on his face while he's doing it? It's a show. He's entertaining. He's also playing the heel. Purposely. Sherman's antics are great for his team. While everyone is talking about his words, he's taking pressure off of his teammates. Sherman relishes the attention and he knows he can handle it. We have a little thing called free speech in this country. Sure, it may seem like we're losing it when guys like Phil Robertson are wrongly punished for merely expressing an opinion. But Americans won't stand for the word police trying to take our freedoms away. When Robertson was out of a job, We the People rose up. A&E listened and reinstated TV's favorite patriarch. Richard Sherman has the same right to speak his mind. Incidentally, what did he say so bad? He expressed his thoughts on his status as far as corners go ("the best") and his take on Crabtree's talent ("mediocre"). Is that so awful? Michael Jordan and Larry Bird, two revered, legendary American athletes were trash talkers extraordinaire. Why target Sherman? They said a lot worse. Cornerback is one of the toughest positions to play in all of sports. Generally, corners are under six feet tall, can't catch as well as receivers, and have no idea which way the receiver they are covering will go. Meantime, that receiver is usually well over six foot, with great hands, and knows exactly where he's headed. Not to mention every rule change continues to go against defensive players. With the deck stacked against them, the top corners often play with a chip on their shoulder. Braggadocio and mental maneuvers may enter the equation. They have to make up for the advantages the offense possesses. Deion Sanders never held in an opinion. Johnny Sample certainly wasn't shy. Lester Hayes made a career out of getting into the heads of his opponents. So many great defensive backs had mind games in their bag of tricks to go along with smarts and speed. Richard Sherman made a tremendous play to clinch the NFC Championship game for the Seahawks. Seattle is heading to the Super Bowl and he is one of the major reasons why. He plays at the level he does because he is allowed to be himself, and yes that includes his cockiness and colorful commentary. Let's not be hypocrites. Phil Robertson deserved our backing when he was wrongfully called out. Chick-fil-A deserved our patronage when they were treated unfairly. Now, at the very least Richard Sherman deserves our acknowledgement that he can say whatever he wants. It's up to him to try to back it up on the field. If you don't want to hear Sherman then throw a better ball and beat him. Otherwise he will come out on top again, and he'll be sure to let you know all about it.

Gasoline Lyrics - Audioslave
Review The Song (1)
House is Haunted – I just wanna go for a ride.
Out and on, before I set this room alight.
Left alone, forever and for crimes unclear,
With my patience gone, someone take me far from here.
Burn that gasoline.
Burn that gasoline.
New day yawning, another day of solitaire.
House is honest, dealing more than I can bear.
Drag me off before I set my world on fire.
Out and gone, the Sun will never set tonight.
Burn that gasoline.
Burn that gasoline.
No what-fors,
Only a can of red.
It says danger on it –
I have found another way.
Burn that gasoline.
Burn that gasoline.
Burn it all away!
Burn it all away!

Not sure I agree with the Lennox Lewis chat to be honest. Agree he may not have had the strongest of chins but to say he had a glass jaw is a bit much. Isn't the art of being a great boxer not to get hit too often, just look at Mayweather. Also, remember, that when Klitschko fought Lewis, Lewis took that fight at about 6 weeks notice, wasn't in shape & was at the very end of his career. Lennox is an all time great.

Peaches the cockatoo lives at the Black Pine Animal Park near Goshen, but has gained national attention for her foul mouth.
Peaches watched the theatrics of an irate chimpanzee throw its fecal waste at a cement crew worker working near a chimp enclosure and has had a tendency to repeat the vulgar words she heard ever since.
"When she hears a lot of noise and there's a lot of excitement around her she gets anxious and she started squawking and screaming then out came the expletive...shut your mouth with a little bit of color added in," said Peaches' keeper Lori Gagen.
Parrots tend to repeat things they hear during a commotion, rather than constant individual teachings, however, the animal park thinks peaches may have also learned a few words from a previous owner.

Whether it's a Canadian-built Campagna or a British-built Morgan, there's something deliciously different about driving a three-wheeled retro roadster. And now it looks like they could have some competition on their hands.
The name is Castle Three Motor Company, and before you go writing it off as a Morgan copy-cat, let us point out that it's actually a revival: Castle Three built three-wheeled roadsters back in the 1920s, smack in the middle of the era when Morgan was still riding on three wheels, too. So the most you could levy at it is to call its revival opportunely timed, or a revival of a copy-cat in the first place.
Castle Three resurfaced in August with a design from Xenophya, a motorcycle design studio that's worked with Triumph and Royal Enfield. The design, which you can see in the gallery above and the video below, ditches the 2+1 seating layout and four-cylinder engine of the original for a more Morgan-like two-seat, V-twin setup.
Rather than raising seed money from deep-pocketed investors, Castle Three opted to crowd-fund the project. But while it has yet to raise the capital it needs to get up and running, Autocar reports (despite an earlier claim that it was canceling the project) that Castle Three is still working at it. The company figures it can break even on selling 60 cars per year, but hopes it can build as many as 500 units annually. Check out the video below.

In February, Weatherford's City Council made the decision to ban smoking in local businesses serving food or drinks after taking time to seek the city's resident's pleasure.But at its May 27 meeting, which was filled so only standing room was available, the council agreed with a 4-1 vote to make an exception to the new ordinance.The local Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) members, as a private club that only welcomes the public a couple times a month at fundraisers, will be allowed to govern for themselves whether they will allow smoking or not.Representing the VFW, Roger Blair said they are more than willing to make those fundraisers non-smoking or only allow it outdoors."I have the utmost respect for y'all," council member Jeff Robinson said, but he also feared that allowing smoking might keep away other members who would attend otherwise, even quoting the 2007 president of the organization as saying the same thing.Blair said the local VFW has about 250 members, approximately half of whom attend regularly. About 60 percent of those, Blair says, smoke while the others do not seem to mind. In certain areas of the building, smoking is already banned.The council also expressed concern of how far exceptions might have to go if they allowed this one."Where do you draw the line with exceptions?" council member Heidi Wilder said. "Is it fair to allow one over the other?"Because the VFW is a private club that members pay a fee to be a part of, Mayor Dennis Hooks said he believes they should decide for themselves, especially considering the high initiation fee. "I think we can govern ourselves," agreed VFW member Joe Lockett. "We've earned that right."With the 4-1 vote, city staff will rewrite the ordinance listing the VFW as an exception and also consider whether they would like to include other, similar private or non-profit clubs in that exception.

We've got an exclusive custom gameplay video of criminal motor-'em-up Driver 76 on PSP to show you - but please note there's some very naughty language in the video, so if you're under 18, best click away now. You'll see highlights from the first two missions here, including a heavy collision with a fish truck (and the police) and some back alley-bothering coupe action.
From what we've played of the game, it's looking like a possible GTA rival with free-roaming gameplay and excellent driving physics. In fact, if it weren't for the title screen, you could be forgiven for thinking this is another PSP GTA offering, rather than a new Driver game. But that's not necessarily a bad thing, 'cause GTA is the bee's knees.
We'll have more on Driver 76 soon, so keep checking back for more. In the meantime, point your eyes at the trailer below to see if this could be your new choice for handheld criminality.

Temporary Exhibitions
The Exhibition: For the Love of Freedom is University of Oslo`s main venue on the occasion of the bicentennial of the Norwegian Constitution.
Photo-artist Lill-Ann Chepstow-Lusty and Professor Svein Harald Gullbekk were given a cartè-blanchè to curate an exhibition examining and prying into the heart of freedom, as seen in the crosslight of art and science.
In 1904, several sea chests filled with treasures arrived in Kristiania from Siam, today's Thailand. Captain Theodor Ring had collected 250 pieces of colourful Bencharong porcelain, during his service in the Siamese navy. Now he wanted to give his collection to two museums in Oslo.
This exhibition explores the relation between fashion, luxury, craft, wealth, consumption and poverty in India.
Between 1890 and 1910 the Norwegian explorer Carl Lumholtz spent 6 years and 8 months of his life travelling in Mexico – in the Sierra Madre Mountains and the Sonora Desert, to learn more about the indigenous peoples living there.

The Youth Rally Committee creates a community for young people with rare medical conditions to bond over shared experiences, learn about symptom management, and find relief from the sense of alienation that accompanies these rare conditions. Kids aged 11–17 with bowel and bladder disorders such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and cancers of the bowel or bladder come together once a year for a weeklong rally on a college campus. During their stay, they take part in outdoor games and off-campus trips to local museums, and learn how to manage their conditions with activities overseen by nurses and counselors who also have similar conditions. Counselor skits and a camp dances relieve stress in the evenings, while off-campus events promote medical self-management in a public setting.

WHAT CAR? Magazine has gotten some alone time with a stunning new 640i SE Cabriolet and brought along some readers to get their opinions on the new vehicle and at the same time offer some stunning visual shots of the car in HD video. Worth the watch!
Head of BMW Group Design, Adrian van Hooydonk, provides some insight in this video behind the design philosophy of BMW's newest top of the line convertible, the all-new 6-series cabrio, which just made its world premiere at the 2011 NAIAS @ Detroit
We have posted yesterday's full BMW press conference from the 2011 NAIAS at Detroit. Ian Robertson presented a state of the company address, as well as introducing the all new 6-series cabrio, 1M coupe, 1-series LCI, and the 2011 X3. View the press conference inside.
Introduction video for the 2011 BMW 6-series Convertible (F12) featuring some words on the new 6 series convertible's design.
Words like "breathtaking" and "irresistible" punctuate the history of BMW Convertibles. Now, BMW has opened a new chapter in the tradition of open-top cars. The new BMW 650i Convertible fulfils the wishes of the most discerning automotive enthusiast as The Ultimate Driving Machine® with groundbreaking luxury and crisp good looks. In the premium convertible market, the 650i Convertible presents a convincing case with the most advanced chassis technology and most innovative comfort, infotainment and safety features.
The Concept 6 Series Coupe made its north american debut today at the 2010 LA Auto Show after making its world debut last month at the Paris Motorshow. The concept is expected to be a very accurate preview of what the production 6-series coupe will be.
By far, the main headline attraction at the 2010 Paris Autoshow is the BMW 6-Series Concept Coupe which is basicly the upcoming BMW 6-Series Coupe with the word Concept appended to it so as to avoid official annoucement, for now.
The car was revealed in dramatic fashion, being driven down a sloping ramp and coming to a stop infront of the assembled international press. Ian Robertson was the host of the day and gave the audience a well done introduction … CONTINUED
We bring you the first high definition video of the BMW 6-series coupe concept. The videos provide some unique perspectives of both the exterior and interior of the new concept, including the exterior lighting elements and the gorgeous new i-drive screen in action.
We recently brought you photos of the F13 2012 6-series convertible undergoing testing on the ring. Various F13′s have also been spotted on and around the Nurburgring in various models and trims, including what looks to be 650i and 640i convertibles.
The next generation BMW 6-Series (designated as F12 for the Coupe and F13 for the Cabriolet editions) has been ramping up its facetime with the cameras. Thankfully, so far the car has been absolutely stunning from any angle its been photographed at so far, but dont take my word for it, you can see all the photos in our on-going coverage of the car: http://www.bimmerpost.com/6-series.
Just to re-cap the all new 6-Series is said to arrive … CONTINUED
Well, here is what appears to be a homebrew video shot on the photographers way to the Nurburgring. He does an excellent job of shooting the 6-series and giving a nice level of depth to the previously seen spyphotos currently available ( http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=393022 ).
The next generation 6-series ( http://www.bimmerpost.com/6-series ) has been quickly shedding its camoflague in the typical BMW strip tease that presages an online reveal and then subsequent auto-show world premiere. … CONTINUED
We bring you the worlds first video of the F12 6-series coupe in live action. Seeing the test mule in a natural environment among other cars puts into focus the sleekness and well-proportioned design of the F12 so far.

ALBANY, Ga. -- The Albany City Commission has tasked City Manager James Taylor with reviewing the finances of the Albany Water, Gas & Light Commission to ensure that the utility is forwarding to the city the proper amount of funding.
This issue centers on a 2005 city ordinance that changed the formula both entities use to determine how much revenues WG&L -- a municipal utility that is part of the city government -- is required to pay the city each year.
Specifically, Commissioner Tommie Postell and City Attorney Nathan Davis believe that WG&L has not been paying the city its proper portion of the utility's non-metered revenue.
Non-metered revenue is money collected that is not directly related to water, gas or electricity consumption, including such things as late payment fees and connection charges.
"It's important that we get our fair share of their revenues," Postell said. "We've got an ordinance and they need to follow it."
Postell said he believed there should be a joint meeting between the board of the Albany City Commission and the board of Water, Gas & Light, who oversee the utility, to get answers to the revenue question.
Last year, WG&L transferred a total of $7.5 million to the city of Albany.

The Tarpon Cockroach has many modern variations, this video demonstrates the simple and classic version of the Cockroach. The Cockroach can be tied big or small, depending on the location and finickiness of the Tarpon. A #1/0 Cockroach is great for the Florida Keys, where Tarpon are spooky and more educated. A larger Cockroach, such as a #2/0 0r #3/0 is great for Mexico. A great fly and a must have for any Tarpon box! - fly fishing video channel - Global FlyFisher

16. Magic Fly (Pale Watery wingless wet variant) - I will be the first to tell you that I don't believe in magic bullet flies – flies that you tie on and start bailing fish. This pattern is the closest I've found to being the exception. The Sulphur hatch is notorious for producing stillborn flies and frustrated anglers. The same could be said of summer stenos, which have left me muttering to myself on more than one occasion. The first time I fished this fly, it was a classic June Sulphur night on the Farmington. I had a whole pool of trout at my command. They rose to the fly with such carelessness and confidence that I couldn't believe what was happening. It must be magic. I treat this fly with silica floatant (my favorite is Frog's Fanny) and fish it like a dry, on a long leader on a dead drift. The soft hackles and spikey body create a must-eat-me-now illusion that turns trout stupid. Alter the size and color and you've got a fine match for dorotheas and stenos. The Magic Fly is based on the old Pale Watery Wingless wet. - fly fishing video channel - Global FlyFisher

Camping Beneath the Cross

a gathering place for pastors of small to medium churches where we can share our heart

I'm at the church alone. The phone rings. I answer it. "Mayfair-Plymouth Church," I say. The voice on the other end says, "This is Matilda. Would you do me a favor? I can't find my cake carrier. I think I might have left it in the church kitchen. Could you go down and check to see if it's there?" The details are fictional, but the scene is reminiscent of many through my years of ministry. Sometimes my ministry seems to be a ministry of minutia.
Just how much and how often should I allow the small details of the life of the church to distract me from bigger and more important ministry obligations or opportunities? Do I quickly change that burned out light bulb or make a note to tell the custodian? I know where the new ones are kept. It would take about as much time for me to write the note as it would to change the bulb. Do I ask the head of the committee responsible for the outdated poster in the hallway to take it down, making it a teachable moment that the committee should keep on top of things, or do I just take the thing off the wall myself? Do I spend the time to do maintenance on the computer in my office (defragging, updating virus software, etc.) or do I track down the techy in our church and ask him to do it, whenever he can get around to it? Yes, God is in the details, but does He want to drag me into them too?
It's not that I think I'm too high and mighty for such pedestrian tasks. I do them around my home all the time. It's just that I want to make the most of my time when involved in ministry. I want to delegate when I should, but also do the small task at hand when it seems appropriate.
I had some communication with a mega church pastor via e-mail. I sent and received my own e-mail, but his came via his personal secretary. I'd like to have said to him, "Have your people contact my people," but when it comes to e-mail management "my people" is me! And that's OK. I understand there's going to be a difference between what a mega church pastor does and what he delegates and what I do and what I delegate. I need to remember this when most of the models of how to do ministry come from the well-known mega church pastors.
Jesus didn't do all His ministry Himself. He sent out the twelve to preach. He even sent them off to buy food. Jesus was great at delegating. On the other hand, Jesus prepared a fish breakfast for His disciples one morning along the lakeshore while they were out on the lake fishing, and that was after He was raised from the dead and in His glorified body. Jesus was great at doing the details. I, too, need to delight in both delegating and in the details. Balance, I suppose, is what I'm aiming to achieve, balance between delegating and doing the details.

There are times when the sheep we're called to shepherd hurt us. This statement by Spurgeon spoke to me.
"When others behave badly to us, it should only stir us up the more heartily to give thanks unto the Lord, because He is good; and when we ourselves are conscious that we are far from being good, we should only the more reverently bless Him that He is good." (quoted from Attributes of God, A. W. Pink, eBook Loc 1116)
"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever." (Psalm 118:1 — and five other times in the Bible)

It's embarrassing to have your stomach grumble in public, that's why church potlucks are so important, they help keep that from happening! I got to thinking recently that not only can my stomach grumble but often my soul grumbles too!
I grumble about the people I serve in my church. I grumble about the people who I think should be attending and aren't. I have caught myself grumbling about serving God in a small way in an out of the way place (my perception of my situation).
While working on a sermon recently I was reminded of the seriousness of the sin of grumbling (sometimes I don't even consider it a sin). The Israelites who were led out of slavery in Egypt never survived the 40 years of wandering in the wilderness and had to leave possession of the promised land to their descendants. The reason? God told them, "In this desert your bodies will fall – every one of you twenty years old or more who was counted in the census and who has grumbled against me." (Numbers 14:29)
When I think of the times I've succumbed to grumbling I realize that frequently it's a disguised complaint against God. My grumbling is ingratitude for something in my circumstances that's a part of my calling.
So, I confess as sin my grumbling. I also rejoice in God's grace and goodness toward me even when I've allowed my soul to grumble!

Here's a portion of a prayer from The Life of God in the Soul of Man by Henry Scougal. Scougal was born in 1650, exactly 300 years before me! I came across him when reading John Piper, who wrote that Scougal had a profound influence on him. I ordered Scougal's book (you'd never find it on the shelf at a local bookstore). Come to find out Susanna Wesley was highly influenced by Scougal and commended him to her two sons. Whitefield also was impacted by him. And to think I had never heard of him. OK, so here's the portion of a prayer of his I promised.
"O God, grant that the consideration of what thou art, and what we ourselves are, may both humble and lay us low before thee and also stir up in us the strongest and most ardent aspirations towards thee! We desire to resign and give up ourselves to the conduct of thy Holy Spirit… Amen" (p. 95)

Christianity Today magazine recently listed the best books for the leader's inner life. With, Reimaging the Way You Relate to God by Skye Jethani was on that short list. I read a majority of the book while on a three day study leave at a Trappist monastery in Iowa. What a great book with which to have retreated! It's at the top of my list of books that have impacted my walk with Christ and my ministry. Jethani creatively uses five prepositions to explain the different ways we position ourselves with God, four that aren't good as the ultimate positions from which to relate to God and one that is.
In one place Jethani summarizes by stating that "…when God desired to restore his broken relationship with people, he sent his Son to dwell with us. His plan to restore his creation was not to send a list of rules and rituals to follow (LIFE UNDER GOD), nor was it the implementation of useful principles (LIFE OVER GOD). He did not send a genie to grant us our desires (LIFE FROM GOD), nor did he give us a task to accomplish (LIFE FOR GOD). Instead God himself came to be with us – to walk with us once again as he had done in Eden in the beginning." (1402, location in e-book)
As Jethani explains it LIFE UNDER GOD is when I fear I've not been good enough or done well enough to be the recipient of God's blessings, either for myself or for my church. I'm always wondering if I'm measuring up, and I never do. If, for some strange reason, I think I'm doing quite well with God, then I begin to believe God owes me, and I'm disappointed or angry when God doesn't bless as I think He should.
I see myself living LIFE OVER GOD when I believe that if I do things right that God will bless. If I lead my church toward being a church that exhibits the Biblical church growth principles of a what church should be then I can expect it to be a growing and thriving church, guaranteed! I use His Word as a manual on how to do things right.
When I'm living from the perspective of LIFE FROM GOD I'm operating under the assumption that if I just have enough faith then God will bless the way I imagine He should. If I believe that God is really a big God then I'm going to see really big results, every time.
LIFE FOR GOD is the perspective, I believe, that sincere disciples of Jesus focus on most, including sincere pastors. We want to serve God, to carry out His purposes for us. Obedience is good, but it easily becomes something of a duty, even a drudgery.
All of these four perspectives have some elements of truth to them, they just make for a lousy ultimate perspective. Our ultimate perspective is to be LIFE WITH GOD. The goals of the other perspectives are to, in some way, use God, that God is a means to an end. LIFE WITH GOD makes God Himself the goal!
It's painful for me to reflect on how frequently I've focused on the four less-than-ideal positions in my own walk with Christ and how often I've sought to move my parishoners into one or more of these positions. I've renewed my commitment to have a LIFE WITH GOD. Everything else falls into its proper place when I live from this perspective.
If I could recommend one book I've read in the last couple of years this would be it. More than anything else, more than any other perspective from which I could live, I want to live a LIFE WITH GOD! Jethani's book reminded me of that.

While on my recent personal retreat at a monastery in Iowa, I read a lot and attempted to process it during my prayer walks. As I was reading a book I began to think, "this will preach," but then caught myself. I have a habit of doing this, of gaining an insight and quickly thinking how I can do a sermon on the subject, or maybe even a sermon series.
I realized that I needed to let God speak to me, for the sake of my relationship with Him. By immediately thinking of how I could use the insight in my ministry I professionalized it before I had fully personalized it.
I got to thinking how many things need to be processed or aged before they can be used. Lumber can't be used straight from the forest but must be dried. Grapes, too, need to be given time to dry if you want raisins. Concrete needs time to set before you start walking on it or building on it. Yeast in bread dough has to be given time to ferment and make the bread rise. Tea needs to steep.
I need to give an idea, a concept, an insight from God time to work in me, for me to process it and apply it for myself, before I share it with others. Sharing with others that which has not had adequate time to work in me both short changes what it can do for me and what it can do for those with whom I share it.
Speak to me, Lord, and give me the patience to let your Word brew, steep, ferment, and marinate in me. Help me keep a good distance between the hearing and the speaking.
