Today has been one of those days.  Started at 5:30 by reading and praying.  Had a meeting with a missionary form Alaska at 8:00.  Read and prayed some more until staff meeting.  Worked on Sunday morning until 4:00 in which I had a phone call scheduled with a pastor friend form the North Carolina coast.  He gave me some great ideas for a series I'm working on.  It is 5:15 and realized I hadn't wrote on my blog. 

Thoughts on Sunday:
* Difficult day for me.  Brought up old memories from my parents divorce.
* The story about my Dad was 110% true. 
* Message was one that many needed to hear.
* Already received feedback on how God spoke to people about their own divorce.
* I was amazed at how many people have been affected by divorce.
* I know God hates divorce but I also know he forgives divorce.
* Worship was good even if Tim wasn't here. 
* Tim had a week in Disney World and deserved every minute of it.
* After lunch I did something very spiritual.  SLEPT on and off while watching Lord of the Rings part one and two.
* Came to the youth service Sunday evening.
* Dwain did a great job.  He has been here all day.  Began full time.  YES!
* The opening video (from Hope Floats, Dad leaving daughter behind) left people speechless.
* Grant singing the song he wrote while having marital trouble himself was awesome.
* I had to regain my composure before I came back out.
* Paula Cox nailed it on her testimony about the pain and scars of divorce.
