We just finished this weekend at Planet Wisdom-a youth conference held at Hylton Memorial Chapel. It was excellent-Friday night from 7-10:30pm and Saturday from 9am-5:30pm. There was great music and worship, The Skit guys-who did hilarious but also thought provoking skits, messages by 2 speakers, give aways, multi media. What does God really want from me? was the theme. To love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind and love your neighbor as yourself. We explored what all that means. I came away from the prayer skit with the reminder to not worry and fret so much but rather spend more time with God instead. Another thought from one of the talks was to not just de-clutter your house , but de-clutter your relationships. We can't be good friends with too many people. I have been at the other end of others who try to have so many friends (I being one of them) and I don't feel close to them at all b/c we hardly ever spend any time together. I am not in his/her life and they are not in mine. So I will focus on just a few as Jesus did and let God give me oportunities for others to serve them and/or open up new friendships. I was tired though and we lost an hour of sleep on Saturday night so went to bed early.
My brother flew to Scotland today for his new job -I am happy for him. That was truly an answer to prayer how that all worked out.
Our friends flew out to Iceland this week also. Hard to believe we are going in less than a month.
I got a bunch of pictures from my mission trip to Honduras but I must wait for Dave to post them on this blog as I am clueless.
