Sunday Thoughts

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Nay in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8: 35, 37-39).

Ennui

Guys, I have a confession to make:  I'm a little bored with my life.  Nothing's wrong or anything - I'm just a feeling kind of blah.  Does that happen to other people?

It reminds me of that scene in Gilmore Girls when Michel has ennui and Suki "catches it," hypochondriac-style.


Yup, that's it - I'm experiencing metaphysical angst.

The other day I fortuitously saw a bumper stickers that said, "Be Less Boring" right as Carrie Underwood's "Wasted" came on the radio.  That song is my get-your-crap-together jam of choice, so, clearly, THE UNIVERSE WAS SPEAKING TO ME!

"Stop wasting your time," it said. "Do something interesting and meaningful," it said.  "Be more awesome," it said.

So what's my response?

I've decided to blog more.

That's probably not quite what the universe had in mind, but, as Amy Adams/Julie Powell once said, "I could write a blog.  I have thoughts."
