rainy day wisdom

I'm back again at Java Cup with an Italian cream soda and I just got out of the thrift store we all come to once a week or so. This was actually the first time I've been there when I haven't gotten a 5 cent t-shirt from the kids rack or something.
It's kind of strange to actually be in town when all week you are away from phone service, DSL, paved roads, and people you don't know.

Thanks for your prayers. It's hard to believe I've been here over a month now.

Here is a passage that has been really big in my life over the past week and a half. sorry such a short entry--more soon, maybe?

James 3:13-18
Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Hey Mike, you’re such a gifted writer. I really enjoy reading the things that you’ve written, because you write with such passion and wisdom. God has big plans for you Michael. I pray that you have clarity come May, because I know that you have some difficult decisions to make. Well, be generous with smiles and serve the Lord with gladness.
