What I've learned today?......hmmm.....let's see.
I learned that it's easy to waste time. I waste a great deal of time doing meaningless things while people are dying without knowing Jesus. This bothers me a great deal but still I find myself living no different today than I did yesterday or the day before. What is it that keeps me from sharing the gospel? Am I learning that I am afraid of the rejection of people? I always say that I don't care what people think but is that really the truth? Maybe I do care....too much.
I am bold in my speech on the internet but weak in my speech face to face with people. I am not great, for I am just a person. A person who is in need of The Almighty God to bestow His great boldness and incredible courage on me. Without Him I am nothing. I will remain nothing until I allow Him to live and breathe through me every single day without ceasing.
Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Jennifer,
I overlooked your comment on the church blog that mentioned this new blog until just this morning as I surfed the blogs and waited for the bulletin to finish printing.
You've got some interesting posts here, funny yet thought provoking as well. Keep it up, I always enjoy your posts.
Thanks, Al :D
