Snow has fallen

The first significant snow has fallen.

Not to discount a few flakes earlier in the season.  Every snowflake is significant!

But when you get gobs of snow, like gooing together all your halloween candy, then you are in trouble!

We’re keeping watch over another person’s house as well.  I’m just wondering how much cardio exercise I really need!

Upside down I finally get it

I’ve been reading “Since nobody’s perfect, how good is good enough?” by Andy Stanley.  It’s a fairly quick read (you can stretch it over a few days, or just take an hour or two).  The content is the answer to the title question.

I’m sitting writing in my journal.  I glance down.  There, upside down, is a house of cards.  I’ve picked up the book a number of times.  Never seen it!

Maybe Harlequin has done a job of promising more on the cover than is inside.  Maybe I’m so used to covers I don’t give them a second look. 

Or maybe I’ve always seen things differently.

That’s what my family would say.  As a kid I’d sit at the table.  I’d try to explain some amazing thought.  They never got it.  I’d have to go back and rethink it.  Rethink it from their perspective.

Always thought my thinking patterns were easy to follow.  The question is — do others follow the same path?  Maybe I just missed the short-cut and got there another way.  Or did I have the short-cut?

Tuesday, Tuesday!!

PK Regina thoughts

Went to the Regina Promise Keeper’s meeting Friday and Saturday.

“The Awakening” had great music you could feel!  And various plenary (love that word – just means “main”) speakers.  Pushing us as men to awaken to the needs in our own lives, in the life of the church and the world around us.  A good reminder.

I’m reminded that I have been a part of this PK movement for a decade.  One of my greatest fears is that we end up growing old together and not reaching out to other men!
