Rambling...

I subscribe to the singles e-newsletter from christianitytoday.com. Today I was reading about how so many people view abstinant singles (above 18) as "freaky" or weird. The author of the column was upset by that... and I am, too. Lately I've been watching more of "Friends"--I never got into the show when it was running, but now I love the reruns. However... all of them are fairly open about their sex lives--and how active they are. I wonder what would happen if Friends came back on the air and none of them had sex for the entire season (well, Monica and Chandler can--they're married. ;) LOL). Everyone would wonder. It would perplex the nation. Sigh...

Tomorrow I'm back in ministry. My biggest mental struggle is... how do I keep this relevant? How do I serve so that people WANT me to continue serving?? How do I share the heart of God with these people... I'm SO unqualified. Thinking about what I'm going to talk about tomorrow... I almost want to cry. Our God is so... generous. Gentle. Kind. Accepting of us and our faults--allowing us to make our choices and come back to Him again and again when we run away. Tender. I want to convey that.

I need to read more Scripture. I can almost feel a PHYSICAL yearning for it.

I cleaned inside today, but also did a little bit of stuff outside--trimming roses and such. It was a sunny 61 degrees out there--not CA sunshine, but sunshine nonetheless!

I'm off to veg for a bit, work a little on the Word, then an early night.
Sunny Days!
