This is the day that the Lord has made

let us rejoice and be glad in it. This has been a productive study leave so far; the most pressing item on the agenda was sermon planning, and I actually got farther than I had intended—I have all of 2009, not merely blocked out even, but laid out in detail. This is of course only prospective, since God reserves the right to upskittle all my plans; but still, if I have to deviate, I now have a base course to deviate from, which is quite satisfying (and more than a little reassuring, honestly).As noted, of course, that wasn’t the only objective I set myself for this week (just the one that needed to be accomplished first), so with that done, it’s on to other projects. At the moment, though, I could really use a brain break, so I’ll leave that for this evening; for now, it’s time to join the kids on the sledding hill.

  1. lol… it is oddly reassuring to read this post, as Mark often tells me how grateful he is to have the oh-so-carefully-laid-out-in-great-detail service plans I give him, so that he knows exactly what it is he has deviated from as he goes about it…

    hope the sledding was fun! 🙂

    I will note, it’s a little more polite to chuck your own plans out the airlock than it is to do so to plans which someone else has gone to the trouble to produce for you.

    And yes, it was. 🙂
