Memorial Day Weekend —> By the Numbers

Normally I shy away from numbers but just to mix up my posting style, I figured why not.

0 = Times Bella peed in her kennel. (Even though she was in there about 8 hours a time a couple of times.) I don't know if I could hold it for 8 hours.
1 = Time we grilled out
2 = Days without air conditioning working. Yuk.
3 = Sports games watched (2 U.S. Soccer games and 1 Twins game.)
8 = DVD's purchased (Stupid Best Buy ads.) :)
11 = Minutes early for church (It's a rarity we are ever early for church.)
107,000,000 = Dollars earned by X-Men over the weekend. (About $25 of those were from us.)
Infinite = Times Bella licking Leif and Cyri's faces

GOD'S MESSAGE FOR ME TODAY
But God has so composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that member which lacked. —1 Corinthians 12:24b

HOW DOES THIS APPLY TO MY LIFE?
Here we are talking about spiritual gifts. (Servant's heart, leadership, empathy, humor etc. that we use for God's glory.)

Now earthly wisdom would tell us that a pastor would get more honor from God than a church custodian would. But, God says the exact opposite. Yes, the pastor is extremely important and has a huge reponsibility, but he receives more honor from people becuase he is in the spotlight.

Where as the custodian does his work behind the scenes and is a less glorifying earthly position. God will give more honor to the one who is not glorified on earth because of his status.

THE WORLD RELIGION AND CULT/SECT/OCCULT GROUPS THAT ADVERTISE IN HOMOSEXUAL PUBLICATIONS
There are an estimated 275,000 homosexuals linving in the Twin Cities. (The homosexual community themselves would claim higher estimates.)
