"24" :: Unplugged

Img_0111So . . . as the clock strikes midnight every Sunday PM, I have decided to UNPLUG *GASP*  for at least 24 hours.  No I am not sick again (But thanks for caring.)  I am merely trying a new spiritual discipline by actually taking a day off from church and disengaging from the Internet.  I know shouldn't be that difficult, but so much of my life filters via my computer that I have found it more difficult than I would have thought. 

A couple of things got me thinking about this. 

One . . . a few weeks ago after not answering eMail for a a few hours, someone actually called to see if i was okay.
Two . . . because of the very fact that that I have to INTENTIONALLY NOT get on-line, it is probably a good idea for me to do so.

So . . . after I get done cramming last eMails until 11:59 on Sunday PM, I turn off.  So far it has been great, seen a couple movies, did some journaling (With this strange things called a Pen and Paper.), have been working out again and have just laid around an done nothing.  I figure there are 6 other days in the week to do my official Kingdom work, but at least for one day I will start taking care of the getting older every day body, mind and spirit.

So, if you NEED to get in touch with me, you'll have to use that phone thingy or just wait until Tuesday.  See ya in 24 ;-)

For Thought

  • Quote "Peace"
    “Peace it does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.”
  • Benediction
    Thank to all who have asked for this. This is a compilation of many different benedictions that I have heard throughout the years, no originality claimed, just some great opportunities to share it.

    Go forth into the world
    With compassion and justice in your heart
    Give voice to the silent
    Give strength to the weak
    See one another
    Hear one another
    Care for one another
    And love one another
    It's all that easy
    And it's all that hard

    Now may the grace of our Lord, Jesus Christ
    The love of God
    And the power of the Holy Spirit
    Be with us all, now and forever more
    AMEN
