| Ok, I've got a new Xanga to reduce some awkward tension. I'm now at LivetheAdventure |
| |
| So... some church folks here got ahold of my xanga because I forgot to log off of a computer. Awkward, really awkward. So, needless to say I went through and deleted some entries and am in the process of making a new one. So, advice to you all, if you're going to put something online that it would be awkward if certain people found it make darn sure that you log off computers correctly. |

| New pet peve: people who micromanage my use of time.
the short of it is that it is my decision what I do with my spare time, not some 45 year old mother of two who is not my direct supervisor in any capacity.
It might also be that I can't stand awkward undertones of people expecting me to be different.... I hate awkward

| So I guess I'm moving to a different host family. I meet them tomorrow after church. I pray so much that it goes well and that they are blessed because of their hospitality. this weekend I went on a staff retreat; I didn't want to go but I am certainly blessed for it. I think for the first time in my adult life I really understand the nature of serving in community. I know beyond a shaddow of a doubt that everyone who was in that room this weekend will have my back everyday for the rest of my life, just like I have theirs. It's a powerful thought; I hardly know these people at all but the bond that forms out of a shared passion for the health of the church and the building of the kingdom is stronger than I ever thought it would be.
I thought, since I'm temporary here, I wouldn't be able to get deeply drawn in. Boy, I was dead wrong. I just drove for a long time tonight thinking and praying. What I came up with is that I do not understand that this kind of joy and fullfillment, and pece, and passion, and community can possibly exsist and there are still people who say no to Christ. It makes me ache for the Church.
Thank you for healing me
