I just read some posts on my friend's blog and I was so inspired I had to start one. She is a really good writer! Liz - you should be a writer! I have never been good writer, too unfocused and rambly but this is not English class, just for good friends. I don't think I will write every day... who knows...
This week has been so exhausting. I would not even know where to start if I had to recount the events of the week so I am just going to start Sunday.
Got up after staying up late last Saturday night (yet again) talking with close friends about the recent and not so recent events at Faithwalk. William got very buzzed and was saying some pretty funny things. It has been a very stressful two weeks for him, so I didn't stop him. (sheesh I need to get my typing speed up faster...)
We got to know another couple at church better - it was a lot of fun hearing them talk about how they met and got together. What made it funnier was that their oldest kid, Fern was there too and had a good laugh about some of the things said.
William slept like a LOG because of the bottle of wine he imbibed during the course of the evening. I was still troubled and couldn't sleep well. Sometimes, I really wish I could just throw the bottle back too! stupid asian genes :p
anyways, worship went really well. i heard from a several people that the songs really went well and several people came up to John to say what a good job he had done. God really worked through him to touch me too.
Our friends from LA, Andy, Elisa, & their baby Erik left the house at 4 for the airport. It was so nice to see them! Erik is soooooo cute. He has the biggest eyes. *sigh* babies are a miracle.
Anyways, I had another call that night with a member of Faithwalk. Again, not easy but hopefully, with God's help, productive.
Monday came and I talked to a couple other people and again, mostly about being fair and seeing both sides of the issues. The last conversation of the evening was particularly encouraging. They were very willing to be open and really look at what was going on in an impartial way. That is always a good sign and a sign that God is moving.
It is Tuesday and I am still feeling so heavy. This, all this, is not what God has made. This is us, silly headstrong people messing up what God started as very good.
