I think I'm a Martha (Luke 10:38-42), lol! Here's another Saturday filled with busy-ness instead of relaxation, rejuvenation and reflection. The day actually started yesterday when my wife told me that her mini-van driver's side rear tire is "flat flat flat". So naturally, that goes on the "honey-do" list. Mid-week, Auntie Sharon (bless her heart, really) emails me to remind me that I had volunteered to throw something in the old Kamado for Pastor Appreciation Day luncheon tomorrow. Oops! OK - I can handle that too. Then there's the "promise" I made to upload videos to YouTube of the Fall Concert for the Aiea Intermediate School 8th Grade Bnad from August 30. Anything else? Oh yeah, update the PBC website with Pastor Mike's audio sermons uploaded onto Semon Player and also process and upload the video onto YouTube of the 4 dudes who came to Christ recently - all of which gets updated onto said website.
OK - BUSTED! I really feign complaining about all this; I do this all in the joy of knowing that I've been gifted this way by God and that I use my talents for Him. Sounds corny but it is true. Take the Worship Team: I always joke that if someone had told me 5 years ago that I'd be playing guitar for a little church's Worship Team for free, I'd have said (in the vernacular of today): "You trippin'!" Haha! But it is all true - I do this all for Him (well, except for the AIS Band Boosters and flat tire situations, lol).
Anyways, I'd like to give a special shout out to Shari and her family: Shari, you are showing tremendous strength in Jesus (Phil. 4:13) in what you're going through. Hang in there girl! Remember that He has a plan that will bless us all in His time.
I leave you all with the viddy I processed and uploaded for my 4 brothers who have proclaimed their faith in Jesus. May your hearts be filled with joy and may God Bless you all!
