Random Wednesday Thoughts

  • To file under the “Further Proof Gilbert is an Idiot File.”  I had a sweet tooth earlier so Lisa gave me a “healthy” chocolate candy bar…it was huge and oh so good.  Since it’s “healthy” I I kept eating and eating and eating…my stomach hurts.
  • I’m also still reeling from the Caps losing a Game 7 overtime thriller last night.
  • Seriously I hope I don’t puke…my stomach really hurts.
  • Speaking of things that make you sick to your stomach.  Someone has twice now in the past month stolen CAYA’s food and drinks from out of the refrigerator at church.  It is clearly marked as CAYA’s stuff but yet someone persists in doing this.  If it’s you and your reading this, please realize that you’re hurting a ministry and that in effect you are stealing from God.  Really I could care less about the food/drinks, but I do care about your soul…please stop sinning against God and His church in this way and do the right thing.
  • Not only has this week’s message been getting a lot of hits on the web-site, but I’ve been excited to see that literally dozens of you have downloaded last years Mind Your Own Businessseries like I suggested.  Way to go…now put the principles into action and watch as God leads you to financial margin and to a place where you can be radically generous to those in need.
  • We discussed this past week’s message last night in small group and we all agreed that one of the big problems in our country is we have too many choices.  We have so much stuff, but yet because of the fact there’s all this other stuff we don’t have, were never content, which leads to buying more and more, which leads to a life without margin and full of stress.
  • Dan reminded us of this verse.
  • Hey have you noticed that new feature on the site?  I looked up that verse by using the “Bible Search” link that’s now available on the left side of your screen.
  • In this case, I knew the word contentment was in the verse, so I typed that into the Bible Search box and boom it spit back to me the different verses that I was looking for.
  • Hope this new feature on the site helps you get more into God’s Word than ever before.
  • Speaking of…tonight is our Wednesday night classes.  I know for me, participating in the Men’s group…especially my small group…is a highlight of my week.  If you haven’t tried out a class on Wednesday yet, give it a try.
  • My stomach is starting to feel a little better…remind me never to do that again.
