No Resolutions 'til
...'til you read the cover at ninetyandnine.net by DB! I read it at 0630 hours EST this morning, and must say that this is something that I need to read every day in 2007. I ordered the book that Brother B mentioned in the article, from Amazon, used for $6.50, and can't wait to read it. But for now, I am convicted and intrigued by this man DB's call to reach out rather than pull in.
Alternative Resolution
And no, I haven't made any resolutions for 2007 for the simple reason that I usually don't fulfill the ones I make. The best one I ever made was in my firehouse days and the uniform pants I had didn't fit any longer (darn shrinking waistband). So I made the resolution to—since weight loss was not in the picture that year—to buy bigger clothes. And it worked, and I kept my resolution for a few years to keep the new bigger waisted britches.
Doctor's Annual Physical
Oh yeah, that, and in only one week: my Doctor's Annual Physical. I wonder if maybe my pastor should be granted something like that, that one day out of the year I have to sit down and get scrutinized, checked, questioned in detail—call it an Annual Spiritual? Anyway, I have to face up to my doc, a female by the way, and explain to her why I never went for a stress test back in May. Skipped it, that's all. And why my health is pretty much in the same condition I left it in from our last visit and examination. I guess I have this idea that I'll be some stripped-down, excellently manicured poster child for Ralph Lauren and the doc will be thoroughly impressed with my physique. But that hasn't happened yet.
Read It Already
So go ahead and click this link to DB's article and let me know what you think. Write a letter-to -the-editor at ninetyandnine.net and let them know what you think. And tell Jesus what you think and He may tell you what He thinks. I think.
