Sunday morning

It's Sunday morning...I'm ready to preach...I'm sitting here with coffee and reading my friend's blogs and feeling more and more guilty that I'm not blogging. I haven't stopped thinking...I've just run out of time it seems to sit down and do this. So...I'll do a little blog this morning because I have to!

Actually, it seems like there is so much to blog about these days that I don't know where to begin. Maybe it's my ADHD kicking in - I can't decide what to do - or is that just because I'm the youngest in my family and can't make decisions? I don't remember. Could it be Alzheimer's? That is a fear of mine actually. Let's move away from that one.

I'm giving my last message on "Mastering Your Money" today. Yes...preaching on money at church - see my earlier blogs. The Bible is just chock full on the idea of money yet the only time it gets mentioned is when the church is in trouble and we're begging people to give. I've tried to approach it from a different perspective. When I started the series, I told everyone we were not in financial difficulties and my heart was just wanting to teach a good series on money so we would have a Kingdom perspective on money.

The elections are coming up. I'll be glad when the ads stop running. How ridiculous. Here in Nebraska we usually have pretty clean elections. Not this year. Things turned nasty early and got worse as time went on. What is disappointing to me is that we have a good bunch of candidates...but they are all Democrats. I hate that. Why did the Republicans let the good candidates lose in the primary? Well, of course they didn't "let" them...the good ones got out spent. I suppose I will have to hold my nose and vote Republican...or not. I'm just not sure what I'm going to do. My usual philosophy on elections is that party trumps person...but this year we have some really terrible persons on the Republican side. Yuck.

Well...time to get the pastor hat on. I promise not to let a month go by before I blog again...maybe...if I remember.

Glad you took the time to post! Now that you've finished preaching about money, I hope the testing you've been having in this area subsides for a while!
