woke up early

Here it is, Tuesday morning at 5:42 AM. I normally am not up this early. Maybe up this late, but not this early. I even went to bed early last night for a change, thinking I would get a full 8 hours. So much for that idea.

Think I will use this time to plot out the next few Salamander stories. What is a Salamander story? Glad you asked.

Once upon a time I worked at Kinko's. I was having an unbelievable slow night and I decided to write a story to brighten the night of Beav, the night shift guy at the store on the south side of town. You see, Beav was getting slammed. So I wrote the first story in "The Never Ending Tale of the Yellow Spotted Purple Polka Dotted Salamander". That was 1995.

Thought it was time to write another but the strangest thing happened. I began to consider the storyline and wouldn't ya know it, I have not one, but several story lines teasing my imagination. Sooo... thought I might plot out the next several stories on paper.

To read the first story go to www.b4eternity.com.

Bless God

"...to be the church..." to me means that those that He calls out to Himself for a glorious life of freedom and yet total minute by minute dependence upon Him for life and friendship, allow that overflow of life and love to spill out to all those he leads us to. Once we are totally saturated with Him, it becomes easy to respond to Him and become Him to all those around us. When 2 or more of us talk about Him , He is actually formed in our midst.As we all respond to Him from the deep desires that He has placed in each one of us, we literally become the salt of the earth.

"to gather in worship " means that we purposefully gather to share His life in us with others. We all contribute a piece of the puzzel or we bring an instrument to play in the orchestra. The result is absolutely heavenly when Holy Spirit gently leads and guides us. No one is there to exhalt themselves or further their careers--they are there to share life and all it entails with each other.
