The All-Day Journal

The service this morning went really well. I got home last night at about one and checked my e-mail to find that they didn't have enough singers for today, so I went in a little early. I really enjoy singing in the band and I wish I could do it more often, but they really need tech people a little bit more than they would need singers. I do whatever they need is what that amounts to.

The service was about fear, and it was really amazing. I want you to listen to it. If you haven't subscribed to my church's podcast yet, I'll tell you how again.

1.) First, you'll need to download Itunes from the internet if you don't already have it on your computer.

2.) After getting that installed, go into the program and go to the menu on the left side of the window that says "iTunes Store".

3.)Once the iTunes store page loads in the main window, click on the menu on the left side that says "podcasts".

4.) The page will change and then you can type in a search in the box at the top right of the window. The search should be for "Midtown Fellowship".

5.) This will take you to the podcast. There should be only one result for your search. Click "Subscribe" on the right side of the screen. Don't worry, it's completely free.

6.) The podcast will begin to download this week's sermon onto your computer and will automatically replace it every week with the new sermon. To listen to it just go to the left side scroll menu and look for the icon that says "Podcasts". Click on it, and you'll see the sound file sitting there, ready to play.

Outside of that, I played some frisbee with Viking today for about an hour. The weather was warmer than usual and the sun is out, so I feel pretty happy. I might be in the process of fighting off some sickness, but I don't think it'll get the best of me. This week is going to be a little bit difficult, but I think I'll be able to make it through. My desires are simple. All I want is just a little bit of free time to sit back and relax. I'll have a pretty loaded day up through Wednesday, and after that, who knows. Maybe I ought to start throwing applications out to different areas, maybe even around here. I've been thinking a lot about staying, moving, moving, and then staying. I think if God really wants me to move, He'll make the financial part of it work out. That's pretty much what it all boils down to at this point. I know I'm needed there and I'm pretty sure I'd get along great with the people, but financially, I've got responsibilities that need to be taken care of. I'll just see what happens.

Okay, so this is the first journal that I've written that has taken me all day to write. I literally started writing at about 2:30 and it is currently 11:19pm. I took a nap though and I woke myself up. I stopped breathing in my sleep all of the sudden for no reason at all and it startled me awake. But that was good because Matt and Viking were on the way to Kroger to get some groceries, so I snagged a ride with them. I finally caved and bought some tapioca pudding. I love that stuff. I've already eaten three cases of it. I really need to stop before I waste it all in one night.

Speaking of pudding, I also have been thinking about getting back into the gym (yes, again), but I just don't know where I can fit it into my schedule. It's not so much the difficulty of working out, but the fact that I have work and school and if I start working out now, I'll be too soar to drive cars and run up and down stairs. Maybe I'll tough it out though. I'm built back up again to where I could have some pretty impressive gains if I just disciplined myself into a commitment.

So now I just finished playing guitar for a while. I'm trying to learn a whole new set of worship songs other than the ones I learned in high school. Our church sings some really good ones, but I can't remember the melody on a lot of them and all I have are chord charts, so I think I'm going to have to get in touch with Randall and see if I can't get together with him to work some of these out. I've been practicing my guitar a little more than usual lately. I'm trying to lean back on other activities besides just watching tv all of the time. I really want to read more too, but I'm still pretty bad about that. Oh well. I'm out. Peace and love.
