Weekend recap
Well, it was a rather exciting little weekend in the life of Tim. First off, I want to say thank you to all the people have been praying for me the past few days. It means so much to know that I have great people who care and want to lift me up to the Lord. For those that didn’t hear, I spent all of Saturday in the hospital getting tests for lower abdominal pains. They never totally figured out what it was, but they were able to rule out the big worries, and it seems to be dissipating over the past few days. Hopefully that trend will continue. I’ve got an appointment tomorrow afternoon to follow up, so you can keep that in prayer.
As a slight blessing and a curse, this fell on the same weekend as my church’s annual family camp. This stinks, as I’d really been looking forward to spending the weekend getting to know people in the church better. But it also worked out that most of the music responsibilities could be handled without me, which was really nice. My roommate said it well on Saturday that there was no way that I should be sleeping outside this past weekend.
I also got the chance to visit in at Covenant again (not wanting to drive across town on pain killers, ya know?). It was nice to get to sit and hear Paul lead worship again. That boy, he’s good. And the sermon on Christian friendship was one of the most unique and great sermons that I’ve heard in a while. At first, I was a little hesitant as he gave a rather simple reading of what it means to be a “friend of Christ.” But then, the pastor turned it slightly and used similar principles to discuss true friendship among Christians, in a way that I found very convicting for my own heart. It left me really thankful to have been there to participate in worship with that community again. It also made me want to devote myself more to excellence at my current church, which is a good feeling.

Good to hear that you’re ok, well I’ve heard otherwise but that’s all psychological and not health wise, only kidding:o)
