Life as a Gnome.

I’ll stand here, slightly tilted, with no control over my position and the many other yard inhabitants that may be lusting after my balanced equilibrium. It’s a lonely life, that of a garden gnome.

 Today I cleaned my house. The webstream is finally working and I listened to Merchant Band while I cleaned. The rest of the world outside toiling and I was blessed with the serenity of singlarity of body and plurality of spirit. 

 Although, I skipped church tonight to watch “the jedi returns” Star Wars movie. It turns out that I was going to be asked to sing on the mic at church, of which I had considered on my own earlier that day and decided against doing, with out any type of notice. I suppose the Lord answered my unspoken, even,  ungathered prayer by the action of my absence.  I also sent out a long awaited email to a friend who holds pre-tribulation beliefs about the end times. We have been emailing back and forth as to who would go first in a sketch of our beliefs and he finally just asked me to and I complied.  It felt really good to get some of my beliefs organized enough to form an argument, although argumentative was not my platform;  I spoke in love and in humility.  I made it quite clear that I have much studying to do before I can give a complete believe system, but that I know what I was saying about the end times as truth and I even stated that I looked into the arguments that I had once believed, and even further, and that they were all false. I am hopeful for what he will say and how this will provoke him to “search out the scriptures” concerning the end times.

Tomorrow I baby-sit 3 boys, ages around 10.  I hear they are pretty self entertained, but I’m looking forward to it almost. I had prayed for the Lord to send me an inconsistent job so that I could do it when I was free, considering I am starting school full-time aug. 27th and helping a lot with our house of prayer.  So far I have 11 days of babysitting scheduled with them.  Praise God!

I love Jesus.
