a day from the (home) office

Steaming mug of green chai tea on my left... uplifting tunes pumping through my headphones via pandora... staring out the window over my laptop screen... and spending the day catching up on email correspondence,  organizing, and record-keeping after a weekend up in Lincoln City, along the northern Oregon coast. Beautiful.

Struggling to maintain an eternal perspective lately, as the ever-growing "to do" lists loom menacingly. Lord, change this Type A heart! Would covet prayers for focus and keeping Jesus my ONE priority, allowing His Spirit and Truth to reign in each moment, while still being faithful in the daily things that need to be seen to.

Reading in John lately... back to the basics. =) Also, praising Jesus for 17 new prayer partners from sharing times this last week! Looking ahead to SIL-UND and resolving to make this week a lighter one, work-wise, in preparation for the upcoming 9 weeks of insanity. =)

And... with that... back to my day of relaxed office-work.

How do you say "Amen"?

I'm sorry, but there are no captions for the "signing impaired" on this video. BUT...you can skip forward to 1:09 minutes in and watch Deaf believers from a smattering of different countries show you where they're from and how they sign "Amen!" Very cool. Enjoy!
