Blog Your Blessings Sunday

March 25, 2007

Some­times we don’t see what is right in front of us.I have friends here vis­it­ing me from another part of the coun­try. Dri­ving them around the area has been an eye-opening experience.

It is fun to hear what they say about the coun­try­side, the town, land­marks, shop­ping, etc.

Book Shopping

March 23, 2007

I should never be turned loose in a book store. It always means that I am going to spend more money than I should. Tonight I went to Bor­ders and this trip was no exception.

I went in look­ing for some of Bishop John Spong’s books because they were rec­om­mended to me recently by a very good friend (retired clergy). They only had his most recent release and I want to read some of his ear­lier works first.

Blog Your Blessings Sunday: Forgiveness

March 18, 2007

Forgiveness

If you’ve been read­ing this blog reg­u­larly, you know that I have been work­ing a great deal on the con­cept of thank­ful­ness, feel­ing thank­ful, and giv­ing thanks in a mean­ing­ful way for all things.

This week I have turned my atten­tion to the topic of for­give­ness. More specif­i­cally, I have been focus­ing on the man­ner in which we are called to for­give one another and how well I live up to that directive.

Con­sider these two passages:

Simply Successful Secrets

March 15, 2007

Sania Wyatt tagged me to par­tic­i­pate in “Sim­ply Suc­cess­ful Secrets.”

Com­pose a new blog post list­ing the top 5 to 10 things that you do almost every day that help you to be suc­cess­ful. They can be any­thing at all, but they have to be things that you do at least 4 or 5 times every week. Any­thing less than that may be a hobby that helps you out, but we are after the real day in and day out habits that help you to be successful.

In no par­tic­u­lar order, here are some things that I do consistently:
