Projects waiting. Bottles of tempera paint on the dining room table. A bag full of Sharpies on the coffee table. The futon down, a long strip of butcher paper taped on the wall behind. "Sacramento State" traced on, waiting to be painted. Six boxes worth of IVP books, and the invoices to go with. Old journal pulled out for a reference in upcoming teaching. Spiritual disciplines handbook to keep self centered in the One. Conference registration money collected in an envelope on my desk, waiting to be counted. Texts, lots of texts. Lots of emails. Life-giving ministry, the kind that you want to stay up till 1:30 am for. What on earth ministry, the kind that leaves you puzzled. Then that new friend from the first two weeks of school coming to Large Group all of a sudden, twice in a row. He prays, he joins the post-meeting worship on top of the parking lot. What's bringing you back? Running [currently] hypothetical scenarios to invite him to know Jesus.
edit. need to do my laundry sometime between now and thursday.
