What went well February 25 2014

1.   Janelle prayed for me this morning and spoke about how much I am loved by God.  What a great start to the day!.

2.  Class went really well.  We watched a video on the Lusitania and the kids were transfixed.  And then we made posters for Wilson’s 14 points.

3.  I got a lot of grading and paperwork done this morning so I feel like I am really catching up.

The body is a temple but the only sacred thing is the soul inside.  Without the Spirit the temple is just an empty shell.  All sorts of things are kept inside the temple– what statues erected to the personalities we idolize?  My temple has high speed WiFi.  Do we light candles to our stone  heroes and neglect the Spirit for which the temple was built?  And I know I waste a lot of time worrying about sagging porticos and buttresses.  The temple fails, but the soul is eternal.

Three things that went well. February 24, 2014

1.  I only had a small headache today, and one pill took care of it.  I’m glad that I had medicine to take and I’m glad that it worked.

2. Although the day was a long one, I was able to get a lot of work done.  I got most of my grading into the system and I’m glad because end of quarter is just two weeks away.  End of third quarter!

3.  I had a good discussion with Eric, one of my students, about the capture of El Chapo.  He is concerned, and I believe rightly so, that hundreds of innocent people will be killed in the power vacuum.
