It seems to have been a struggle to get this particular sermon down on paper, both figuratively and quite literally.
All weekend, sermon prep has been going on around the fringes of "real life". Real life being ball games, meals, playing outside, all those things that tend to jump into the middle of one's attempts at completing a project. The end was finally in sight this evening at about eleven o'clock yet, just as things were coming together on the page Darrin's pen blew up...exploded...all over him. Ink actually splattered all the way up to his elbow.
My pastor often says that God causes him to "live" the sermon the week before it is to be delivered. This week I guess he had to "wear" it too!!

Maybe there was an ink blot pattern left that Pastor was to see and inspite a sermon about! HA!. Seriously, things could always be worse. Once, a child of ours decided to dismantle the toilet to see why the water was blue. The blue dye bottle was then shook out all over the bathroom THE NIGHT BEFORE we had out of town guests arrive! I'm sure there is still blue dye to this day in that tile group!
Have a good week!!
Gretchen is indeed a fine "hijacker" and writer.

Blessings for the week, Wrights!!
the pastor is in desperate need of more quality pens; perhaps we can take a collection and then purchase a nice pen that will not break from one of his favorite catalogs.
