Personal
I’m sitting in an unfamiliar church today. And I’m ashamed to say I’ve been silently chuckling to myself as the service goes on at all of the little quirks and problems that have happened. No harm in that, you might say; it is after all a small country church- funny things are bound to happen.
But then one of those strange God-moments happened to me. Who am I to laugh? It’s not that we shouldn’t strive for professionalism and excellence. It’s the fact that these people, no matter how unprofessional their service or how many times the vocalists fell out of tune- no matter what happens- these people are genuinely worshipping the living, breathing, omnipotent and omnipresent GOD. And that’s something I can respect.

I’m pretty excited. Tomorrow I’m going to get my senior pictures taken. I’m really glad it still looks like late August or early September outside, because I really have never wanted fall pictures, so hopefully we won’t get an enormous cold front tonight that turns everything brown.
As for the rain, I really don’t know. I mean, obviously Kesler’s not going to take his equipment out in the torrential downpour, but some pictures-in-the-rain would be cool, just not all of them. I’d rather have sunny ones; that’s probably more my personality, wouldn’t you think?
I still haven’t picked out my clothes, either. That’s the job for this afternoon, if I don’t go to the Life Chain. It’s a good cause, and I wholly support the Pro-Life movement, but I don’t know that i have time today to do everything I need to do, like pick out clothes, work on the church’s blog and podcast, and finish some Spanish homework and my “Profiles in Courage” essay for Government.
We’ll see.
In the meantime, lunch is about ready and I need to get started on everything.
