Today was great. :) All those things above, plus bible study with the guys tonight. It was our last "official" study until at least next September - next week is an end of the year BBQ ish. We were in Matthew 18, talking about the parable of the Lord and the debtor. If you don't know what I'm talking about, look it up for sure! Like most things in God's word, it's really applicable. It was sort of a bittersweet moment when we all realized how pathetically hypocritical our lives are. God has forgiven us SO much... yet when someone we know or even love needs forgiveness, we hesitate. Somehow we feel justified. Stop for a moment and think through that... it's bull. ;-)
