I’m not Superman, but if I was my kryptonite would be cloudy days. Which means I would have been a pretty sorry superhero these last few weeks in Tulsa. However, I keep trying to see the bright side. Such as having a working sump pump I installed myself and having such wonderfully vibrant bright green grass in my yard.
This afternoon I rushed around with Amy as we ran errands and readied our house for our Tuesday night hang-out time with the college class. We’ve got a pretty good routine worked out by now. One of the things I really love about my wife is her ability and willingness to minister. She doesn’t even need me. I left her by herself to play minister and hostess which allowed me to help out with the food pantry at Memorial Drive.
Tonight I learned how to do the paperwork part of our food ministry. I think I got it, but I’ll probably forget everything I learned by the next time I get to do it. We’ll see. Anyway, the really cool part about the evening was the time I got to spend with a couple of the old guys who are part of our church. Paul and Carol. Yes, Carol is a guy. They are fun. They are wise. They love to talk. They love Jesus. They have great passion for their ministry. David, Darin, Aaron Taylor and I did a lot of listening. And a lot of laughing.
Then it was back to my house where we joined the party in progress. A couple of the girls were trying to watch Dancing with the Stars. One of the guys switched the channel to that show about dangerous fisherman, or something like that. He then hid the remote. The ladies didn’t like that one bit. He couldn’t stop laughing. From the amount of noise everyone was making it wouldn’t have mattered what was on TV because you couldn’t hear anything. I ignored the goings-on and the card playing so I could eat supper. Like my time at the food pantry- there was a lot of laughing.
Christians laugh a lot. I like that.
After everyone left we cleaned the house (again) and brushed our teeth. It was a good day.
I hope we see a little sun tomorrow.
