When I created this blog, I didn’t think to check the PrayerSpot subdomain, which is available. So it’s time to move over there!
It must be the weather.
Realized a couple minutes ago that the endorphins must be firing off in my head. Feeling great. Saturday afternoon, Panera wifi room, 71* outside. And I’m here in Philly with the best job I’ve ever had, a sense of peace and contentment, and enough rest left over from hanging out with some crazy prayer people last night. Life is good.
I’m even wearing my “too close for missles, I’m switching to guns” t-shirt that my sister-in-law gave me.
This self-depricating shirt can be purchased for the wimp in your life from randomshirts . This arrows on this shirt point to my non-existent biceps which is probably the reason this shirt was given to me in size small. Wearing this shirt will accentuate the mortality and vulnerability of anyone who wears it.
I am considering a retaliatory purchase of this shirt for the both of them:
But, Life IS Good . I’ve got opportunities to pay off debts, practice my instrument, give back to society a bit, and mentor/train my prayer team at church. Can’t complain. Some dude in Sweden even emailed me about a Clementi sonata I recorded years ago. As my Bon Jovi-quoting brother (who gave me this shirt) would say, “Have a Nice Day”.
It’s as if the Int’l House of Prayer had an intervention done from Trading Spaces… and the verdict is years away!
As a prayer junkie, and former prayer leader for several years (at a daughter HOP) until recently displaced, I was stoked when in January 2006 the IHOP began webcasting. Now I could plug back into prayer even though I was 2 hours away from any semblance of a prayer house. There was a nice, unobtrusive (albeit bland) backdrop that was incapable of detracting from the prayer and worship that was happening.
Enter GOD TV makeover this week. …So is the room Blue now? Or is it Orange? Come back, beloved Beige – martyred for the masses. I haven’t seen my favorite hue (vomit green) yet, but I suspect it comes out between 345-4:10 AM.
I remember life at a few church plants right before moving into that first building. Oh, how we were admonished against taking sides based upon opposing Interior Design doctrines that would, if not repented of, surely split the church.
Call it schadenfreude if you must, and I shall duly repent, but from reading several unofficial blogs, the trials of this makeover might begin to approach Biblical levels. I guess it’s refreshing that people aren’t that different even in a prayer community such as IHOP – this too shall pass.. next time you remodel the prayer room!
I’m sure I’ll get used to this eventually… good luck friends as you acclimate to the volitile hues of your new prayer room!
