So today was frustrating for me. I had computer problems I was not expecting, and ended up not getting things done as I had wished. I am surprised how much this throws me for a loop. You would think that (given the amount of time I’ve worked here) I would be used to this by now. Any ways I did get the irrigation up and going (at least part of it). Tomorrow is shaping up to be a lot like today tho ugh, so I’ll have to watch my attitude. Especially since I’m tired again (it is night time, I’m supposed to be tired).
This evening was actually pretty good. I had a good talk with some of the summer staffers. They’re concerned that we (BMCR as a whole) are loosing our focus. We are here to “Effectively help people know Christ better.” They feel we are forgetting that. I don’t know myself. Any ways we talked about that, reasons why, and how to fix it. It was a good talk. I said that already. I’m repeating my self, I’d better shut up.
Proverbs 14:13 Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness.
Father there is so much pain in the world. How many of the smiling laughing faces that I see are hiding sorrowful hearts? Please help me to remember when I get frustrated with people that they are in pain as well. Our lives are so small, and we let ourselves get driven to and fro by so many things.
