Abounding Praises

Today marks the completion of the first full week of travel. I've received Joel Osteen's newest book for being a first-time guest at a bigger-than-Salem-Alliance church, eaten at In-N-Out (for David C.'s sake), jogged to the theater to see "Despicable Me" since I was running a bit late only to remember when I got there that it was playing at a different theater and it was the last showing, rented "The Book of Eli" from a Redbox instead, saw an El Camino parked on West El Camino Avenue, laughed in the middle of the street at something embarrassingly commonplace which has since completely escaped my mind, and ordered way more sushi than I thought I did for dinner.

And the rest of the week wasn't too bad either.

So who wants to guess how many miles I've driven in just one small week?

Things to praise God about:
1. Got to visit with one of my 2010 student's parents and younger brother after visiting their youth group.

2. Got to have dinner with a current potential student and her family. She's applying.

3. Despite being on the road, at least 10 more school visits have appeared on my schedule.

4. I am healthy.

5. The King and I have some one on one time for another week and a half.

PS: If you guessed 1,075 miles you'd be the winner.

"Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name;
make known among the [high schools] what He has done.
Sing to Him, sing praise to Him;
tell of all His wonderful acts.
Glory in His holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!
Look to the Lord and His strength;
seek His face always."

~1 Chronicles 16:8-11

  1. I don't know what's better, the Joel O book or the In N Out. I'll venture: In N Out.

    What did you think of the Book of Eli? I didn't like it, but I'll keep my opinion to myself (as I'm known to do).

    I also notice that the background of this blog is on the other side of the world. Which makes me think that Marty should let you guys go and do the NACCAP European fair circuit. Untapped market out there, I say!

  2. Ha ha! I thought you might appreciate that.

    Book of Eli...I found it to be decent. Didn't like some aspects, really liked others.

    I'm with you on the traveling. Best get talking to Marty everyone!
