This will probably be a short post tonight one because the weather is playing games with my wireless and two I am ready to lay back down. Yes I say back down cause as some of you know I have been in bed all week with pneumonia!!! I tell you I will be glad when warm sunny weather arrives and I can be outside and away from all the germies!!! I have been sick for almost 3 months now longer than I have been sick in 8 years!!! I am getting really tired of this.Tonight I felt good enough to read my bible some and read a passage in James that really jumped out at me. In James 4:17 it says
"Remember. it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it." Well duh we all know that right? Then I read the explanation of that verse......it can be a sin to avoid someone when you know he/she needs your friendship, to do an act of kindness, or service or restore a relationship. We all know it is a sin to tell a lie, but it can also be a sin to know the truth and not tell it. WOW now I am thinking how many times a day do I sin? How many times have I known I was supposed to do something and didn't do it? What kind of opportunities have I missed? I am going to try to be more aware of things I should do and do them, I have learned to pray when someone comes to my mind but am not so good at acting on some other things. How about you how many times do you ignore a feeling or nudge,what are you missing?
Well my body is telling me I have pushed enough today and I need to rest for all the coughing I will be doing in the morning!!!! Nite all

Questions

Perspectives class is over for another night and again I am challenged. One of our speakers said "When you get comfortable with your Christian life, get ready because God is about to upset it again!" I am not sure that was his exact words but I got the message and my comment at that moment was "I want to be comfortable for a little while. God I have had enough turmoil for a while." Now I have more questions than ever!!! Am I too comfortable where I am? Am I too comfortable with New Orleans missions? Am I going to be asked to leave my family? What if I meet someone and they have other goals and plans that God has given them? ( I am sure that God has the prefect one whose goals and plans match perfectly) What if it is somewhere that has dangerous illnesses, creepy bugs (especially spiders)or snakes, or a really hard language, or war/conflicts, what if............ couldn't I just serve you God right here in Winchester, Indiana or at least in the states?
