To say that this has been a busy summer, would be a mild understatement. I won't bore you with the details of why it has been so busy, but just take my word for it.My Wednesday evening message was from Luke 10, the story of Martha and Mary at Bethany. The focus was on maintaining the right life perspective and making the best choices in order to focus on your relationship with Jesus. I made the point that much of what we spend our time on and worry about is really insignificant, and we have to work to maintain the right priorities.
So, after service I took care of several ministry items I needed to take care of and went out to the parking lot only to discover that the battery was dead in my wife's van. I have to think that God has a sense of humor. The battery could have gone dead at any time, but it went dead right after my sermon on not worrying about the insignificant things of life.
Rather than leaving to pick up some needed items to send down with the group going to War, WV on Thursday to close out the mission work there this week, I went to Advanced Auto and spent an hour replacing the battery in the van.
Go ahead, laugh, because it is funny.
