TGIF

Friday at last - and where on earth has the week gone? It's been such a busy one with work, worship team training and the usual home life - and a couple of very late nights thrown in too. But finally the weekend has arrived. And this weekend will be one of rest. I've got a break from worship-team duties and thus a chance just to be present and participate - fill up my tank so to speak, before giving again next weekend. After a recent 18-weeks-in-a-row worship team duty stint, it's a real blessing to be able to sit and listen (each duty weekend involves about 6 hours of preparation and service time per service). The pastor's doing a 2-week series on "Why Wait" - keeping sex for marriage, and although it's too late for me (single mom since age 21), it's good to hear the why's of what God's plan for our lives is - hope my son will absorb some of it and we'll discuss the ideas later on.

The remainder of the weekend will involve a relaxing and stress-relieving stint in my garden, lunch with a Woman of God and time to keep God's day holy. With rain on the way, it's going to be good to sleep in too.

Nothing profound in my head today - just relief that the week has been survived.
