time to relax

today, we decided to take it easy and relax for a change of pace. I "slept in" until 10 (which for me is not even close to sleeping in...I think of 1 or 2 as sleeping in) and spent a couple of hours reading, which was something that I personally needed to spend some time doing. during that time, I was able to finish A.W. Tozer's "The Pursuit of God", which i would advise everybody that is able to get their hands on a copy to read it. It's a great book that is written in plain language (helpful for me) while digging deep into big spiritual issues. it really challenged me and I hope at least a few people read it after this endorsement...
Brian and I are planning to meet in a few minutes to look at my plan again for the day-to-day youth ministries stuff.
Also, our internet connection is reliable again...for now. I say that because our connection is dsl and we have to pay based on how much bandwith we use over the course of the month. we ordered 3 gigs worth of download and upload bandwith, but that's really a shot in the dark about how much we will use it, so if you don't read anything new from me toward the end of the month, you'll know we exceeded our bandwith limit.
*****if this bit about internet didn't make sense to you, just ignore everything after "our internet connection is reliable again...for now"
