Day 339 of 365: Anything free

Since i have no car, i had to hitch a ride with Amos. That meant that i have to wake up early and be at church when noone is usually around. i didn't mind it much, but this was planned out because i wanted to have breakfast at the Golden Donut. Did some studying of Romans 14 while i was there. i can honestly say that Romans 14 is still a slap in the face and i'm doing my best to digest as much wisdom as i can from it. Well, a wise man listens to advice, right? This is from the bible and it's wise to take heed to the message it gives.

Today's message was from Pastor Mike. Good one, though it was at his usual pace. Can't complain if i learned something. Learned to see that Jesus' kingdom isn't like any other kingdom. This kingdom is opposite of everything that we normally see in a kingdom. So being a part of this kingdom means that we have to be humble, loving, peaceful and pretty much everything that represents Jesus. It's a cool idea to think about that the kingdoms of the world are all about the wealth, but the kingdom of God is on the opposing side.

When service was over, Annie and i had lunch with her parents. A simple dim sum meal with talks about wedding schedules and bedding. Bellies full, they headed out to Macy's for a little shopping for covers while i went home to get some cleaning started. There was much to do. Moving Kristy's bed to her room to make space for the new bed, swapping cabinets for Annie, and pretty much a general clean-up. We were done with most of what was important and the next round will begin after the bed comes tomorrow morning. That would be an exciting time! New bed and a big one too!

We went back to Annie's for dinner and her dad cooked up a storm as usual. Always feel like i'm a special guest and there's always a favorite or two on the table. Can't complain and i mustn't. They gave us another comforter, even though one was already bought from Macy's. i guess there is no limit to anything free.
