busy day
I have a very busy day today, so my blog is not that intriguing. I have a funeral, lunch appt., sermon prep, talking with county officials about our road, prayer, and topping it off with a date with Erica. We are going to see Jacob play the drums for Phillips, Craig, and Dean.

One thing you can’t call us!
You can’t call us spoiled. We won’t ever take for granted a Sunday morning service.
I didn’t realize how much I need Sunday morning worship with my friends and family until Sunday. It is obvious that there are different levels of membership. At PromiseLand, we don’t classify people by their involvement. But, Sunday I realized that if you don’t come every week, then you don’t like it as much as I do. I love to worship, I love to minister, I love to see my friends. These three functions complete and fulfill our church-going experience. If you are not doing all 3, then I urge you to start.
Sunday felt like a pruning. God is shaking our tree and trimming to see what limbs need to be eliminated. This may be attitudes, ideas, pride, and could even be people. It will make us better.
Pastor Randy called and said, “God is going to make it up to you.”

(in case you don’t know what I am talking about…our Sunday morning worship services were canceled due to flooding)
President for a day
Did you know on Friday or Saturday that President Bush had a colonoscopy? (not sure how to spell that one)
Anyway, during the process, Dick Chenney assumed the duties of President for several hours. Then when President Bush woke up, he was supposed to let everyone know he was ready to take back over. This sounds like an episode of “24”. But if that were the case, Chenney, would use the opportunity to let his coup take over, oust Bush from office and even pull the plug on his IV or something.
Hopefully these things don’t happen, but there is no telling what goes on up there.

What are you Proud of?
As we were teaching Jude to be potty trained, we would celebrate with him by the potty whenever he successfully made a deposit. Especially #2! Dancing and singing and “yeah, Jude!”
Now, he expects a celebration every time. He is even proud of his work. The other day my mom and Jude were alone at Jason’s Deli and Jude wanted to “save it for mama to look at later.” My mom had to inform him that that was not a good idea.
So what are you proud of. Why? We will be talking at great length about this on Sunday.
