I had to set aside my normal routine today so I could do one thing: Create a presentation. At 2PM today, I will give a presentation in my wife’s classroom on my college experience, my work experience, and any words of advice I have for this group of 8th graders who hope to someday go to college. I had a blast putting the presentation together, and I finished it about an hour before I needed to get to school. I presented the material and it was very well received. I hope to read their notes and comments over the weekend.
When I got home, it was time for another “presentation” of sorts: I had to prepare for this evenings Bible study for our “Lifegroup.” First though, I needed to cook dinner. I cooked, we ate, we watched a little TV, and then it was time to go. I really didn’t prepare the lesson as much as I usually do because I was tired from earlier in the day, and I figured that God would speak to our group through His Word anyway. It turned out to be a great study; we learned a lot, the snacks were delicious, the conversation was lively, and more than the usual amount of people came. I left energized… but fell asleep rather quickly when I got home at 11PM. What a wonderful way to end the week!
Day 26 mood: Finally, Purpose in my life, if only for one day. Today felt really good.
