If you have a spare hour, I would really encourage you to listen/watch this sermon that my pastor preached on Sunday. It's on worship...but not music, etc.....more like what we worship besides God. All I have to say is WOW! I can't get it to link properly, so...

On the left hand side, click on Worship: God Transforms. Then just hit the arrow to watch the sermon, or go down a bit farther and you can download the audio.

Song
I was listening to some music by Bebo Norman today and I just wanted to share one of his songs with you. If you have never checked his stuff out, I would really, REALLY encourage it. I got to see him in concert a while ago and got hooked. I don't know how to get music to play on here, but if you go to my mySpace page, I have the song playing there.
I Will Lift My Eyes
God, My God
I cry out
Your beloved needs you now
God be near
Calm my fear
And take my doubt
Your kindness is what pulls me up
Your love is all that draws me in
Chorus:
I will lift eyes
To the maker of the mountains I can’t climb
I will lift eyes
To the calmer of the oceans raging wild
I will lift my eyes
To the healer of the hurt I hold inside
I will lift my eyes, lift my eyes to You
God, My God
Let mercy sing
Your melody over me
And God right here
All I’d bring is all of me
Your kindness is what pulls me up
Your love is all that draws me in
Chorus
'Cause you are and you were and you will be forever
You’re all that I need to save me
Because you fashion the earth and
You hold it together, God
So hold me now
Chorus
I will lift my eyes, lift my eyes to You
God, My God
I cry out
Your beloved needs you now
I Will Lift My Eyes
God, My God
I cry out
Your beloved needs you now
God be near
Calm my fear
And take my doubt
Your kindness is what pulls me up
Your love is all that draws me in
Chorus:
I will lift eyes
To the maker of the mountains I can’t climb
I will lift eyes
To the calmer of the oceans raging wild
I will lift my eyes
To the healer of the hurt I hold inside
I will lift my eyes, lift my eyes to You
God, My God
Let mercy sing
Your melody over me
And God right here
All I’d bring is all of me
Your kindness is what pulls me up
Your love is all that draws me in
Chorus
'Cause you are and you were and you will be forever
You’re all that I need to save me
Because you fashion the earth and
You hold it together, God
So hold me now
Chorus
I will lift my eyes, lift my eyes to You
God, My God
I cry out
Your beloved needs you now

Tired....
Well, I've been on night shift for.....actually I don't even know how long I've been on night shift. Long enough to lose all track of time, days of the week, or even what month it is. Ughhh...I now remember why $$ is the only reason to work nights, which is why I'm working nights. I have several pictures of Guatemala on my locker and one on my clipboard to remind me why I am putting myself though this misery.
Right now I am listening to Enrique Iglesias on my computer, in Spanish no less. I can only understand a bit of what he says, but I figure its good exposure. It also reminds me that I need to work on my Spanish today.
Lets see...what else is new......
I have a "new" car. The quotations are there because its a 1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, which is 4 years older than my other car (piece of crap that it is). Its older, but it has less than 75,000 miles on it and is in good working condition. I bought it from a couple at my church for a good price. It doesn't get the best gas mileage, but I don't have to worry about it making very funny noises, leaking oil, shimmying in strange ways on the freeway, or just afraid to go anywhere because the car might die. It was a good buy and hopefully will serve me well until I get back from Guatemala next year.
Not much new news on the Guatemala front. I'm still waiting to hear back from Dr Tito, the head of the medical team down there. He's been busy with clinics/trips and both of his boys have been very sick (which always happens when he is out on clinics...a definitely attempt by the enemy to disrupt work there). I'll be e-mailing him again here in a few weeks, just to touch base. I did, however, hear from Oscar...now don't get all excited...it was just a quick note asking how I was, how my Spanish was coming along, and when I was coming back to Guat. I'm hoping that Tito and Rolando are coming for a quick visit this fall to attend a medical missions conference in Tennessee and that Oscar will be able to join them. They usually make a stop in Seattle to speak at some churches to raise support, but I haven't heard anything for sure. I'm tentatively planning on going to the conference, as I'm definitely interested in medical missions.
Well, I need a nap.
