Yawn
Paul is on late shift this week, it means he gets in at about 7.30am and sleeps until 2pm, then has a nap at about 5pm!
What this means to me is that I'm thoroughly bored, with no one to talk to all day and I can't even hoover the stairs, or clean the bathroom. As I also craft in our room I can't craft either. Even cooking is a no no as it wakes him up!
So I'm not looking forward to tomorrow!
Oh I do have some news! The Sunday before last I led worship at our church! I was ever so nervous, trying to make sure the timings were right, and that the songs/hymns went with the sermon. However I tried I could NOT make the songs/hymns go with the sermon. The sermon was on Jesus healing the lame. Well I couldn't get my head around that and besides the word I had was Faithfulness. So I based the worship on the faithfulness of God, you know the first eight verses of Psalm 89 mention God's faithfulness FOUR times. To me that means that God's faithfulness is Extraordinary, even in heaven the Angels cannot stop praising him for it.
God does not promise to heal all our diseases but he does promise "the lame shall leap like a deer" (Isaiah 35:6) I believe this is the freedom that comes from His spirit living within me.
I know there have been times when I have been 'lame' in my spirit, weighed down with burdens I am not meant to carry, worries that I cannot change by worrying.
Anyway the consensus of opinion was that I did well. The timings were fine. I did warn the Pastor to have either a ten minute or a forty minute sermon ready, he ignored my warning yet everything worked out fine!
In March I have been asked to preach on "Jesus, strong against temptation" I'm looking forward to it!
The college course is going well. I have finished MS Excel (and passed) and am now learning MS Access, I'm enjoying it, but why do I dread it all day Monday?
