BULLET THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
- Saturday was an enjoyable day. What a great experience seeing a friend finish his first marathon, and running the whole way to experience it!
- Sunday (although tired) was more enjoyable. Can’t say enough about the opportunity to worship and share in the ministry of the Word with fellow believers.
- Today, however, I have been in a fog! Hope to snap out of it soon.
- I am very much looking forward now to my 50 mile run coming up early November. In the coming weeks I’ll be posting some stories about an organization I’m running for.
- It really IS that time of year. The first week of November will by my 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of writing this blog (in the beginning I only did Mondays). The last two years, I’ve done a special give-away. I will do something special again this year, I’m just not sure what, so stay tuned!
- I think the Browns will win 4 games this year. That includes two in the division. If you think I’m crazy, refer to the earlier bullet that said I feel like I’m in a fog today.
- These next three days in baseball are going to be full of drama and excitement. I’m hoping for some scheduling craziness and some tie-breakers.
- I have no idea what is in store for our church, but I am really excited to see how God uses us to make disciples. Lots of unknown, lots of challenges . . . never thought it would be easy!
