The best part of the morning was the baptism. A couple & their daughter were baptized & it was a tremendous privilege & blessing for me to be a part of it.
The problem was that the sound system was going assiduously mental.
I was about losing my mind ... my talk seemed awful - even melissa said that. I was so distracted by the fact that I couldn't get to the sound system, I never really seemed to find a groove. Our rehearsal was brutal as well - we only really did a few songs.
I ask God sometimes - why this morning? - why not a "non-baptism" sunday?
One of the things that I have to persist in understanding is that God has a plan - I sat at the front praying & just said sorry to the Lord if I had not wrapped the service in enough prayer.
In a raw kind of way - church is somewhat like being in a concert or play or sport ... a person can spend the rest of the day thinking through the blips in the program.
For me ... there is a fine line between analyzing & healthy contemplation. Either way - I will be making sure the sound system is superlative next week.

So for the record.... I never said your talk was awful... I just said it was a little long (smile)
I wish you knew how proud I am of you and how much I admire you for what you do ... It's not easy and even though it might not mean as much coming from your wife... I think you do a great job.
love you
Melissa
