randomness

today was a fine day. i went to work and while i was in the bookstore, i realized that all my classes and other activities were canceled for the day! so, i watched TV for a while, got new tires and a front-end alignment, and went shopping at south coast. then, michelle & i took a turbo kick boxing class at the gym. it kicked my butt!! im going to be so sore in the morning!!

now, i'm watching LOST and writing to you. just thought i'd include some recent insight.

instead of getting mad at God for not showing me the signs i want to see, it would be more appropriate for me to be mad at myself for not being able to see the signs He's shown me. we are so busy. time is such a precious comodity and it's difficult, even for Christians, to not buy into the lie that we have to be busy and insane all the time. instead, we should do as Paul does and be obedient to God and His will instead of our own agendas. busyness clouds our perception of the blessings God is placing in our lives. instead, we need to clear away what distracts us and place our attention on Him, especially when we're busy.

amen.
