As the Pace Quickens

Today was my first official day leading Young Life. I think it was highly successful, actually it was justa good day. I woke up today and drove to Colrain High School home of the State Football Champion Colrain Cardinoles where I watched a wrestling match between Colrain, Mt Healthy, Anderson, Turpin, Fairborn, and my personal almamater and winner today Princeton. while I was there I got to meet some of the wrestlers on the Mt Healthy team as well as see a bunch of my friends that are still in high school. At about 11:45 I drove my Co-leader Brandon to a car shop where he got his car fixxed and then drove him home. At that point I went to my Grandma's house ate lunch and took a nap (the awesome part). When I woke up the UC game was just ending and I found out that my team had blown a 17 point lead to Louisville. So then I went home and ate dinner with my dad. My dad wasn't expecting me so he didn't really have any food in the house for me, being the improvisor that I am I ate soem Chicken noodle soup and left for the Mt Healthy basketball game against who else but Colrain. When I arrived at Brandon's house to carpool I was informed that the game had been reshcedualed and had already taken place earlier that day. However we still went and hung out with some other people from the school and went to Grater's. I love Black-Rasberry-Chip ice cream. After tat I got home and now I am about to go to sleep (another awesome part) until 9 when I will wake up and go to church. I was praying tonight about Leading during my quiet time and was lead to the sending out of the 72 disciples in Luke Chapter 10 (actually I didn't know where ti was and had to look it up). I am really excited about being a worker in the fields of God harvesting people for him. it had a reference in my bible to Matthew 10 where Jesus sends out the 12 there is even more information abotu startign a ministry there. Thats about all that happened today, if you can't tell I am really excited. God bless you all and may you have a wonderful day too.

in Him

Oh man, you have to start posting earlier in the day. I suppose, however, that if I weren't so into blogs, I wouldn't notice a late post until tomorrow.......and even then, I wouldn't have to comment until tomorrow....but no! I am an overly zealous blogger. You see what you get when you post on random people's blogs? A parasite! Someone that finds daily enjoyment in the stories and humor that it constantly has to offer. :)

And now for actually commenting on the content of today's post....First of all, yay for church! I am looking forward to church in the morning, too, if I ever make it to bed. Second of all, yay for chicken soup! Heh, that sounds way good right now....but that could just be that my hands are cold, and I'd probably enjoy the feeling of the soup mug as much as the actual soup :D And thirdly, yay for.....ok, so I'll admit I'm not a huge wrestling fan, but...Yay for you having a good time! :D Finally, Yay for napping!!!!! And speaking of which, I'm going to go sleep now!!!!! Heh, ignore me, I'm a little bonkers, as I spent all day babysitting.
