today, it went well they were done by 10:30 in the morning.
she'll be at Anderson Orthopedic Clinic till the end of the week.
then she'll go to my Grandmothers where an in home physical
therapist will come work with her, she can't have it at home
b/c my dad will be leaving for a missions trip to South America soon,
and someone has to be at home to assist.
tonight was different, I was having issues with the computer
for songscreen in south hall...dual spanned monitors...in windows 98
need I say more. Youth went better, the band was a different group
so they weren't as tight as they should have been but it was ok.
Nikki talked to the high schoolers and middle schoolers combined.
there were some good points...but can rem them right now, we'll
chalk that up to me being tired. :-)
then I went to El Chaps, Addie Collins had called
me to ask me if I was going and I was like of course.
so I got there and walked in and there was like NO
ONE there, well there were 2 tables of people, but NO
WEAGers....what happened? did I miss a memo?
I mean I know the brazil team wasn't there but still...
so Addie showed up and we decided to get coffee.
we went down to The Gutenberg Cafe by 17th st farmers
market...they make White Mocha's to die for. Addie
just got her license! Yey! and we got lost downtown..typical for me.
good times.
I had interesting text conversation with one
of the kids tonight. even though I'm not a youth
leader I find myself in the position of being and
example and being asked these questions I'm not
sure I'm totally equipped to handle.
basically they feel like everyone hates them,
I assured them this was not the case, but that sometimes thier
actions are inirrupting and sometimes peoples reactions can come off this way.
this is what I told them, let me know if you think this is right:
"we're supposed to love and accept everyone how they are and hopefully they change to become more Christlike, it's a journey we're all at different places on."
"and no ones perfect, but if we can talk it out and forgive each other, everybody wold be better off."
they're answer: I should accept who I am and then...that's
where I'm lost. how does that affect others?
me: "Yes you should accept yourself, but then do bible study and such
to change yourself to become more christlike."
"its not your responsibility to affect others.
that's between then and God, as we grow hopefully we will all grow
towards becoming more Christlike, thats what the Christian walk is
about... Not always easy"
when I say "its not your responsibility to affect others", in reading it now
that may be wrong, but take it in context of a youth to a leader.
and I may need to clarify,
thats all for now, I need some sleep.
