Apparently, I have a severe case of brain damage. Class wasn't last night but next Monday! Oh well, I'm all preped for it now! Got up early and did my gardening job and it was nice to have it so cool but I felt confused all morning going to work 2 hours early!
When I got home Pat was gone on his jobs for the day so I laid down with the mail from yesterday, my options were Architectural Digest (AD) and Adventist World. I know hard choices! But I felt so sleepy so I chose Adventist World, the June issue. I think it is probably the best one yet! There is a web site about a creation movie presented in Germany that I want to check out www.dieSchoepfung.eu and then the article In God's Image by Richaard Spillman on creativity was great. Then The Greatest Story Ever Told by Connie Vandeman Jeffery and the section Ron's story was very touching, indeed, Jesus took our pain! And the very first of Small Things....can lead to great results by Ellen G. White says: "Our ministers are to go forth to proclaim the message of present truth to those who have not heard it. And our churches should not feel jealous and neglected if they do not receive ministerial labor. They should themselves take up the burden and labor most earnestly for souls." We forget that we are supposed to be fishers of men and to work along side with our pastors instead of waited for their sermons each worship day like little robots.
As I was reading a part of the magazine, I had this overwhelming need to stop and pray for someone, like the thought was put there by the Holy Spirit, such an urgent thing that I stopped right there and the words flowed into my brain. I was astonished! Now, I can't wait to see what God is going to do! And after that another person came to mind and I prayed for that person, too, but it was me this time not a powerful must do thing. I don't think I've ever felt such a thing before, truly.
When I finished reading the mag, I picked up AD but after a couple of pages my head jerked with drift off sleep and I took a nice nap. Then, after the nap, I looked at AD but I wasn't too impressed today, it was a good reminder about what is really important!
Well, it's time to water things and cook things and care for things...you know... LIFE.
