I love me some Fridays

     Well this week the G20 summit is town here in Seoul. The streets have been lined all week with riot police and long police buses blockading certain areas of the city. You'd think that with all of that excitement, I would blog about this. But no, this entry is about something much more close to my heart. Something that I think that many more people could relate to. Yes it's about God's most wonderful day, Friday. Yes folks, it is Friday. Since the dawn of man, humans have logged in long weeks only to get to that one sweet prize, Friday. I can imagine how Adam must have felt after God cursed him to go to work for the rest of his days. Fridays were probably a time for him when he felt some resemblance of the life that he once had in the Garden. He could rest and enjoy the life that God had given him. Sad to say however, there are so many people today who do not and dare I say can not enjoy their Fridays, let the weekend.
    These poor souls are either forced to work or voluntarily choose to work through the time that God has set aside for us to catch our breaths. Well, NOT ME!!!  I love me some Friday's. The sheer anticipation of not having to get up at the crack of down is enough to make one just feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Watching the clock inch ever closer to 3:00P.M. causes a sensation of excitement to grow inside like no other. Okay, okay, maybe I am overdoing it a little. But you gotta admit it, Friday's are just wonderful!

William Mcdowell: I Give Myself Away

Another one of my favorite worship songs: William Mcdowell's "I Give Myself Away".

My Facebook Finale!

     Well I did it. I said I was going to do it and I did it. Yep, it took a lot of courage and willpower but I have done what so many others have not been able to gather up enough mental fortitude to do. I deactivated my Facebook account! Yes, I announced some weeks ago that I was going to do this and yesterday I made it a reality.  In hindsight I find it strange that I could miss something that I only used for a few months, so much.  Last night was tough as I was going through withdrawal symptoms thinking about all of the free Family Feud episodes that I was missing out on.  I thought about the feeling I would get of shear excitement when I saw one of the little red boxes at the top of the screen which alerted me that I had a new message or friend request. Well all of that is over, at least temporarily. Now I am faced with the daunting challenge of trying to find something to fill the void that has been left in my soul that was once filled by the most mundane "news feeds".  All in all I know that it was a good decision because it seemed to take up so much of my time. So for now I say goodbye my love, my dear, Facebook.
