Changes

Summer is around the corner, with many changes on the horizon. School has just finished as of yesterday (Tuesday). There are a couple of loose ends, but the meat and potatoes are handed in. What a relief. We have a friend with us this week, his name is Kenny Pretty On Top. He's from the 'rez' in Montana and is a worship leader at one of gatherings out there. It is great to have him and his laugh with us. He is leading worship at Kettlebrook Church this Sunday at 9 & 10:30. A few things I have been pondering:

• Is there an instance in the Gospels where Jesus refused to heal someone of disease or sickness (can't find one)?
• War in Iraq: stay or go? Your damned if you do and your damned if you don't.
• Sometimes the very things we should address in our lives are pushed off due to busyness and/or commitments. This is not necessarily bad. The time spent not obsessing and over-analyzing it may be a welcome respite.
• Could I listen more than setting a person up to deliver my agenda?
• Student teaching is exciting, not getting paid for 5 months while paying $7,000 to not work for 5 months..... not exciting.

talk to you soon....
