Just some stories for a Sunday...

I did something I've been meaning to do for a very long time today.  I went to Sunday school at church before the worship service.  I'm glad I did.  They're studying the book of First Corinthians today and I learned much from just being there that I didn't know.

What I did do though was not set my clock back.  I woke up and thought it was 8:45, so I kind of hurried and got cleaned up, shaved, and found some clothes for church.  As I was getting ready to walk out the door, Miss June reminded me of what time it actually was.

I quit smoking on Friday.  I'm really going to try and here's why:  I often talk of the random things that happen in my life and it's been kind of a random thing about smoking the last three weeks.  From comments from a stranger that were, well kind of strange, to just comments about it, not anyone preaching to me about quitting, and a strong conviction from within that I needed to stop helped make the decision.  The reasons I started in the first place haven't changed.  I guess what changed is how I look at them anymore.

I ran into a friend from my old crew at work on Friday.  He asked me how things were and I told him that they were "exactly the same" .  I could hear the genuine sadness in his voice when he told me he was sorry to hear that.  He's not the only one.  I talked to another friend a while back and that same sadness was heard in that conversation, too.  It's a good feeling to know I have friends that care.

It takes a toll on me and I never understand why, but what I do know is that whenever things finally are resolved, it will bring Glory to God.  If that's at my expense, so be it.  One more thing, just a random thing, I heard the Tozer quote I mentioned in the remarks I gave at church again today and it wasn't from the same source (same radio station, just different presenter) as I heard it before.  I'm paying attention.

Bucket is curled up next to me as I write this.  He's fine but yesterday he tried to finish eating the blue sofa while we were at work.  I guess we need to go for a walk sometime today.  He's a good boy, but a puppy at heart.

Well, got some baking to do today.  I just kind of feel like making something.  I don't know what, yet.  I'm thinking about some spritz cookies.

Have a great day, y'all!
