The first track on this CD (and First Contact) are two of my all-time favorites–they’re so beautiful, this one especially.
Currently Drinking – A Glass of Ice Water
I love blogs- here’s Nertz scores from last night (yes, Brad & Suzie just can’t get enough of the Nertz hurtz…) after 12 hands:
Dominating Daniel – 218
Cunning Christy – 193
Basking Brad – 133
Sorry Suzie – 108
My apologies to those of you who don’t know what Nertz is. It is the most incredible past time/hobby game ever! And it is perfect for obsessive/addicitive freaks like myself. I’ll teach it to you if you’d like! All it takes is about 3 or 4 people, everyone with their own deck of cards…(fading off)
So a couple of days ago I’m reading Chapter NIne of the PDL (What Makes God Smile)- and I’m thinking “boy, this is such a great chapter-I love everything in it” and I just have such a crabby day….it was like I didn’t do anything that I learned that morning. It was so stupid…It was like, duh! Daniel, you can’t just read and get fed and go away like you never ate…So I am determined to re-read that chapter a couple more times…and DO the things it talks about…
Another thing I got out of the last few days and was really jumping out at me this morning again was the word ACTION. Faith = action.
1 John 3:16-18 says-
“This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.”
That’s my encouragement today- have your faith in the Lord translate into WHAT you do all day long–and talk to the Lord throughout the day–that’s the way you’ll know you are abiding in Christ. It takes constant surrender.
I just deleted a HUGe portion of ranting and raving that I felt was a little too much…email me if you really want to hear it…
Until next time
