Boxelder trip

I went backstage to take a nap and 20 minutes after trying to doze off I opened my eyes and I hallucinated a guy standing above me who told me a proverb about laziness, something like “The ants work hard, and the lazy grasshoppers will die.” I thought God was telling me I should do my homework, but then I apparently knew that proverb so figured it was just my imagination. I fell asleep and woke up with a boxelder bug on my face! I left and returned 30 minutes later to go to work and yelled at Anna “No!” when she said hi to me, but have no recollection of it.

My conclusion: BOXELDER BUGS ARE EVIL!!! (and potentially hallucinogenic)

Psalm 25 rocks my world. [slight change to modernize due to lack of direct enemies]

 ¹ In you, LORD my God, I put my trust.

 ² I trust in you; 
   do not let me be put to shame, 
   nor let my enemies [obstacles] triumph over me. 
³ No one who hopes in you 
   will ever be put to shame, 
but shame will come on those
   who are treacherous without cause.

 ⁴ Show me your ways, LORD, 
   teach me your paths. 
⁵ Guide me in your truth and teach me, 
   for you are God my Savior, 
   and my hope is in you all day long. 
⁶ Remember, LORD, your great mercy and love, 
   for they are from of old. 
⁷ Do not remember the sins of my youth 
   and my rebellious ways; 
according to your love remember me, 
   for you, LORD, are good.

 ⁸ Good and upright is the LORD; 
   therefore he instructs sinners in his ways. 
⁹ He guides the humble in what is right 
   and teaches them his way. 
¹⁰ All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful 
   toward those who keep the demands of his covenant. 
¹¹ For the sake of your name, LORD, 
   forgive my iniquity, though it is great.

 ¹² Who, then, are those who fear the LORD? 
   He will instruct them in the ways they should choose.
¹³ They will spend their days in prosperity, 
   and their descendants will inherit the land. 
¹⁴ The LORD confides in those who fear him; 
   he makes his covenant known to them. 
¹⁵ My eyes are ever on the LORD, 
   for only he will release my feet from the snare.

 ¹⁶ Turn to me and be gracious to me, 
   for I am lonely and afflicted. 
¹⁷ Relieve the troubles of my heart 
   and free me from my anguish. 
¹⁸ Look on my affliction and my distress 
   and take away all my sins. 
¹⁹ See how numerous are my enemies [troubles]
   and how fiercely they hate [obstruct] me!

 ²⁰ Guard my life and rescue me; 
   do not let me be put to shame, 
   for I take refuge in you. 
²¹ May integrity and uprightness protect me, 
   because my hope, LORD, is in you.

Just do it

When praying, pray on your knees in reverence to the Most High God who daily showers us with love. Also, whenever possible, pray aloud. The physical has an effect on the spiritual. - This is from Screwtape Letters, the message, not the words - But seriously, do it

ha Ha!

Summer

I want to do God’s will. That is first.

But between Little Eden and Camp Lebanon I began to lean towards Camp Lebanon. But a third option popped in my head as I was thinking back to Praise Chapel. I do have the option to go back to Phoenix. Go back and try with all my heart to show my friends the Jesus I love. And it would be nice to see my home church again, and work at Tonto Rim. Oh Lord, that sounds so wonderful right now…. but I really don’t want to work at some job for a few months… But maybe if I save up my money I can find a really part time job just to pay for gas… but what about transportation… and rent… arg $$! Lord place on my heart what you want me to do. Where can I be your servant the best this summer.
