Good day today

We had our monthly Chaplains meeting at Perry Hospital today. I enjoy going to these events to fellowship, not to mention, that the hospital is a mission field in itself. If you ask someone who just drank a bottle of water if he wants another one, he may say yes or no. If you ask someone who hasn't drank anything in about a day if they want a bottle of water, the answer is most definitely yes. When people find themselves in a hospital, it slows them down. They have time to think and reflect. Often, a sense of mortality comes on them regardless of whether the condition is good or bad. Most everyone in the hospital that I've found has been more than willing to have me pray with them or just talk to them.

I spent the rest of the afternoon with Travis Bennett. He's like my older brother. He's an awesome man of God and to see what God has done in his life in such a short time is nothing short of amazing. I only wish everyone had the desire to learn about God and grow in His Word and presence as Travis does. Anyway, I got some good old fashioned BBQ and chips. Can't beat that with a stick!

I'm fumbling through some ideas on our discipleship program at the church. More on that later. Have a wonderful rest of the day!
