todays sermon was entitled, "the force in god's presence" from luke 19:1-9. it was JUST what i needed to hear. now i see why it was so hard for me to get up, because there was a message waiting with my name on it. bottom line, there are things to distract us that keep us from experiencing the fullness, the power, the force of gods presence. the 3 points: 1). people and circumstances distract us from god's presence; 2). god's presence convicts and consoles us; and 3). god's presence affirms and empowers us.
i had been very much in my word and deovtion prior to this week, but over the last 7 days i have slacked a bit. i found myself a bit discouraged about some things...not to mention how my boxes from the move are constantly staring me in the face and i have no energy to begin attacking them, nor do i know where to start. HOWEVER, todays message was god telling me that i have been distracted...this time by circumstance. they appear a bit to great and i am moving slightly away from gods presence in my life. so, with that said, i will make my way back with diligence and steadfastness, so that i can complete my process.
i have one show today, so after i blog i will go relax to get mentally rested and centered.
MEALS
