you too?

Getting to sleep on time, and shutting things down an hour before that, hasn't happened with great regularity in the past week. I'm working in it, and am maybe at 50% but it's going to take some more time to get rockin. I have, however, been decent at getting posts written once a day. I know you're shocked at their pithy nature...maybe Twitter is helping make me a little less verbose? Doubtful...but I'm glad that I've gotten something posted each day. I do hope to get a chance to sit down and write something more in depth soon...visions of being nestled at a coffee shop, drinking some seasonal latte and tapping away at the keyboard are dancing in my head.

I'll share a pondering from today. It seems like a great amount of people I know were headed to the U2 concert today. Facebook was aflutter with statuses about getting ready, heading there, the excitement over being there, etc. When I was driving and hearing about it on the traffic reports, I could not stop thinking about how crazy it is that there are people in this world that bring about that kind of madness. And how, at the same time, we seem to drag ourselves to prayer. It was a totally reality check for me. We should be running through the doors of the church and falling to our knees at His feet, but instead it so often becomes a chore.

His love and sacrifice is a gift freely given...no overpriced tickets or convenience fees there.
