School is officially at an end for the year, and all of my 8th graders made it to high school. Today begins my first week of vacation before I go at it again with summer school. I have no trips planned this summer, no vacations to faraway destinations... just working and playing and housesitting.
I played guitar on worship team by myself for the first time yesterday. (The other few times I've played, I've had another guitar player there to help me out since I'm new at all of this stuff.) I even led the first song, and for two weeks running, I've been able to sing and play at the same time. Harmony. Oh, yeah. Now I need to learn a new strum! ;o)
I've joined a small group Bible study, which meets Sunday evenings. The study is very involved, but makes me dig deep inside of myself to help me discover what's holding me back. Yesterday's study was rather difficult for me and actually made me cry. It was about the dreams we have for ourselves. It was about working to better ourselves now, instead of waiting to better ourselves when our dreams come true, which they may never. A harsh reality for me, but strangely comforting at the same time.
On the agenda for the rest of the week: visit a new church, pick strawberries and make freezer jam, worship practice, two hours of guitar class, worship practice again, work, hang out, have fun, enjoy life, love Jesus.
