I must admit that today (at least internally and brain wise) has not been one of my best days. I hopped out of town for dinner and to just think/ponder I suppose. I must admit that the orange mocha I'm having (courtesy of Starbucks) is.. Different to say the least. It reminds me of the orange flavored chocolate candy that surfaces now and then at parties. Ya know the chocolate orange wedges that taste good? Anyways, internally I think I'm coming down with something (possibly a cold), but I hope that's not the case. Today I went back into one of my old ruts and I was sitting there thinking "It's wrong; stop now; die to yourself on the cross..." I have been pondering that and just find it....different that my mind and probably the Holy Spirit were waving red flags at me. I can say my conscience was working yet, I didn't follow it. Oh well, just have to do better next time.
My past has been nawing at me today moreso than usual. A relationship that, I am not sure entirely what its purpose was for. I can say it took care of some of my "wants" yet, there were good points to it as well. *pauses and frowns* I must move forward and on...*shakes head* Easier said than done.
Wednesday is practice night and I must admit I'm not entirely looking forward to it. The sound issues that occurred on Sunday must and will be dealt with. I just hope its an easy solution.
*sighs* dang all about me yet not of my dreams yet (church wise)
I'm going to try and setup a wiki plus some forums for the church. Maybe we'll be able to have multiple wikis where members can post, edit, and add there own pieces of information about their tips for praying or Bible study suggestions/ideas/plans etc. The forums could have discussions about the previous service or event. Small groups could have a continuing conversation online about we they discussed at their last gathering. Suggestions and ideas could flow from the congregation to the staff or other (key?) leaders.
If we (meaning the church arena) could take/create awesome websites or programs (maybe even games or virtual guides) as good as the PC video gaming industry does, possibly throwing that into our websites at the very least, we'd have one heckuva (fill in the blank here).
Lastly, there is something(s) that'd I'd love to do/have. Though being a guy plus a follow of Christ I cannot have unless through one option or options depending on the thing. The ironic part is I know that it (or the other stuff) will not fill my heart or even raise my feelings if just for maybe a brief period of time. The only thing that will is following Christ and relying on Him for my needs/wants/desires everything!
Plus I'm thinking about our voter's meeting on Sunday too, yet I'll not delve into that subject again.
May Jesus give me and you His strength, mercy, peace, joy, hope and anything else you or I need today and everyday as we walk through life.

Have a good one everyone.

Boy,
Sounds like a full brain and heart. Good to get away and think 'cuz God wants to speak to us. Get really quiet.
It's good to see you plugged in on knowing that all you really need comes from Jesus/God.
Orange/Chocolate always makes me hurl.
See ya,
Itch
