The week is quickly coming to a close. Here are a few thoughts rolling around in my head.
- We’re going to camp next week! Our youth group is hosting a fall “kick-off-the-school-year” camp. There will be a trapeze, skateboarding, free-style rapping,
a monkey, and many Chuck Norris references. It’s going to be a fun time. - I’ve been doing a consistent “weekly review.” Part of the GTD strategy is to have a review every week where you review and process all your projects, inboxes, papers, everything so you can start fresh on the new week. I’ve been doing this personally, and it has helped a ton to keep my proverbial balance in life. My sweet wife and I have also been doing a weekly planning session which has been extremely encouraging. She’s an amazing help in getting my schedule together.
- I’m encouraged by 1 Peter. In a previous post I mentioned that we’re going through 1 Peter in our youth group meeting. I have been very encouraged by Peter’s ability to present an eternal perspective while also calling us up to live a life of holiness and reverence here and now as sojourners.
- I’m a slow reader. I’m trying to get through four books, but I seem to have stalled on all but one. Gotta get back on that horse!
- Autumn is just around the corner Ok, maybe not just around the corner, but things are cooling down in Northern Virginia. I’m hoping September will be a month of red and yellow leaves, cool wind, and a general conviction that I will need a light jacket outside.
Thanks for reading!
