Son was Shining

Talk about hot!  It was brutal today outside.  Thankfully, my office was nice and cool, my car was cool, and my house is cool.  Praise the Lord for AC!  I had a conference today on the results of aptitude testing I had done two weeks ago.  It was really interesting, very insightful.  It seems I have great aptitude to be a lawyer!  Its kinda funny--when I was a kid I wanted to be a lawyer.   I'd also make a great detective or research analyst.  It seems I score very high in problem solving and have the ability to perform inductive and deductive problem solving.  As I think about these results, I am extremely amazed.  I was listening to a podcast on the way over about the complexity of DNA.  If DNA is complex, how much more so are we? I scored high in many other areas, like art, music, etc. and seemed suited for some really career choices.  I am amazed at how God wires us!  On another note, after my conference I chatted with the advisor, and ended up staying an extra 45 minutes talking about God, Hebrew Roots, shared several resources with this lovely Christian woman.  The Son was shining today!  ;>)

BUSY

It really is hard to keep on track.  As I ponder my day, and lament over all that I did not get done, I am forced to evaluate how I use my time and how I prioritize.  Don't get me wrong....I'm pretty good at time management.  I tend to get a pretty good bang for my buck outta the time I have.  Still, there is always room for improvement.  I imagine God feels kind of like I do when I take my son to Wal Mart or Target...I have something I need to get, but my son gets sidetracked by all the things he sees, he wants, and HAS to have, touch or play with. Look at this book, isn't this toy cool?  Wow!  I really like this bubble bath.  Wait a second, I want to see what kind of cookies these are.  I get home, cook dinner, clean up after dinner.  Sit down with my computer to make a quick purchase.  But what happened on Facebook today?  hmmm....are those earrings on sale?  Let me just send a quick email.....etc.  BUSY--Burdened under Satan's yoke.  Chuck Missler once made a comment about the eyes being the window to Satan, the ears the window to God.  We see the world and want things.  We need to listen and obey.  As I finish this, its no more facebook tonight.  Its time to pray!
