Slow Tuesday

I must say I am glad that it is Wednesday and that there is no reason for us not to have youth tonight! It is important that I get that mid-week buzz going again to carry me through to Sunday.
A lot of people probably don't understand how the ministry works for someone called into the full-time ministry that is working bi-vocationally. I go to bed on Saturday night excited about Sunday, my day of full service for God. My opportunity to share all that I have studied and had GOd reveal to me in His word over the week. Then comes Monday which is a bit of a downer and Tuesday even worse. Then comes Wednesday, which I must confess is still my favorite day of the week. It's my longest day in which I am on the go from about 6:30am to about 9:30pm but it is well worth it. I spend the day just struggling to do my job at the BGH, waiting for the afternoon when I can go hang out at football for a while, go run the van and pick up kids, then have youth group, load up the van take them all home, and then go home. It's the best day of the week for me, it's second only to Sunday.
Then comes Thursday and Friday which are somewhat downers again, building up toward the weekend. Saturday is a good one because it is teh one day I can devote 24 hours to my family uninterupted(sometimes uninterupted) and then we're back to Sunday, the highlight of my weekend again!
So there you have it a little look at the rollercoaster of life that keeps us on our toes. Tara has learned how to see it and by what day of the week it is how to handle it. Football is a great fix though, I get off work at 3 and ride out to the football practices at Pedro MEnendez each day and I am able to minister the whole time I'm there so each day is not a total loss.
Thanks again for reading and have a great "HUMP DAY!"
