Ben




Last night, Becca and I went out to celebrate the birthday of our good friend Rachel (So good a friend she is, she didn't get offended when we were the ONLY people who didn't get her a gift...we suck) when Ben, her husband and my friend reminded me of how long it's been since I last blogged. We had a good laugh about it and I promised to write something of insight and value when I got home.


I didn't.


But that's because I was calling my students so I couldn't get to the computer.


I went to bed drugged on Neo Citrin (spelling anyone?) thinking about why I don't blog as frequently as I should and I came up with a few reasons.


1) Sometimes life isn't as interesting as I'd hope so there's nothing to report.
2) Once you miss a day it's easy to miss the next one...kinda like spiritual disciplines (by no means, however am I comparing prayer to blogging...)
3) I forget
4) I spent too much time reading '25 Things' on Facebook


Those are just some of my reasons...but none good enough. I think I need an alarm to remind me:)

This weekend, I hosted our 4th youth retreat. I say 4th because it's the 4th one I've ever done. It was really impactful. It was bittersweet because it was the first time Becca and I weren't together for it. We both cried when I left home on the Friday. The kids were great though and seeing them experience God genuinely was a thrill. Memories are made on these types of things and I trust that it continues forward for us.
That's about it, blog world.
Thanks Ben for the reminder. Let's do some music recording soon!
