So this is the way Christ works....
Yesterday there were these few people.... Let's call them biddies. Who were on my case for basically nothing. and i mean that seriously, I know that I can be a slacker sometimes and forget thigns and leave stuff around. But, I made a real effort the day before to have everything squared away. And you know how crappy that feels when you make the effrot to do something and you still get yelled at for it? Yeah, well, that's what happened.
So all yesterday I was in a royal FIT, and just cursing at everything and grumbly mubly etc.... And this morning wasn't MUCH better, but I set some of it aside, and read some things in Acts, and felt lots better. And I had to cause I was helping out with Three Services today (Good Friday).
And at the end of the service I helped serve communion. And I served it to the biddies.
That's how Christ works.
It's like, GARRRRRR. And then you serve them the symbol of the ultimate love and forgiveness on this earth, and they look you in the eye, and you say, "The Body of the one who loves us, broken for you," and they say, "Amen." And then you feel like an enormous jerk.
Stupid anger. Stupid forgiveness making people feel better and stuff...
Sometimes we all liek our anger don't we? It's like this warm horrible blanket that is all around us. Which is too bad really. Cuase it's prickley on the outside. Sigh.
God is Good, all the Time.

*sigh* Yep, remind me to tell you about my Easter weekend sometime, and the crazy scary dreams that kicked my butt and made me realize I needed to just let things go.
Why is Curt always the source of all discord and scariness in my dreams????
