Last night...
....I had a wonderful time. Sarah and Nathaniel had a small cookout at their shanty with all sorts of characters that I know and some that I didn't. At one point during the cookout, I slipped on my headphones and listened to some music while watching the people around me. I don't know how it happens, but playing music at certain times, provides a soundtrack for my life. The song I was listening to was "Under Pressure" by David Bowie and Queen, and I was looking around as the music was coursing through my ears. People were engaged in conversation, some were laughing, little babies were being held or rocked to sleep, one lone puppy was trying to find attention in whomever would give it, and I was just listening and thinking. Thinking about how greatful I am to have such friends.After listening to a little bit of music, Chris, Jon, and I got to talking with Joel about going to Biloxi this Saturday. My parents were wanting me to do something of this nature, and although I wasn't opposed to the idea, I figured that I wouldn't really get a chance. Boy was I wrong! It won't be a long trip, but I feel like it will be something that we can use to glorify God in a time that is very stressful for some. Jon hit it on the head when he asked others to pray for us. It's not going to be easy seeing some of the things that are going on there, but prayer would help us to be focused.
Anyways, that was all that happened last night. Actually, I did try to have a phone conversation last night, but I never was called back.....hmm...
