IMAXimum Spidey FR3E!
The popular phrase, "It's not what you know, but who you know" applies to my current source of excitement. I get to see Spider-Man 3 later this afternoon, in the IMAX, for FREE! Yea...I could end the post like that and leave fellow nerds coveting my situation. But of course I won't.
John Mayer of City Vision contacted me yesterday saying his wife Tri Dey (pronounced Tree Day) has free, advanced showing tickets to the third installment of the Spider-man saga. Tri Dey is opening a restaurant in the Minnesota Zoo (which is where this particular IMAX theater is) and as a perk, she is able to bring a few friends and family to see our friendly neighborhood Spider-man swing into action.
Unfortunately, John couldn't go but honored me with the opportunity to go instead. Not only that, but he said I could bring Erin (or someone else) as well. Being that Erin, J-Bone, and I already have plans to see the movie on Saturday, Erin does not want to see the same movie twice within a few days of each other. So I contacted the "Friendly Stegosaurus" to see if he was interested in going with me. His answer, "of course"!
So while fellow fanboys will have to wait for the midnight showing tomorrow, come 9:00 tonight, I'll have already seen it. (Sorry if I come across as bragging, that's not my intention, it's just that I'm so stoked to see Spider-Man 3, in the IMAX, for FREE!)
Anyway, I need to calm down, and get back to work. Have a great day/night and I'll see you tomorrow.

GOD'S MESSAGE FOR ME TODAY
Know that the LORD Himself is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. —Psalm 100:3
HOW DOES THIS APPLY TO MY LIFE?
The one theme that keeps coming to mind in this passage is "pride". Pride is something I need to deal with it seems almost every minute of every day. For example, I'll break down the passage into three sections and show you what I mean by pride.
• "LORD Himself is God" —> Then I'll think, "So. I don't have to obey Him ALL the time."
• "He who made us" —> My tempted response, "But we were the ones who made our son." Or, "I got to where I am in life through my hard work and persistance."
• "sheep of His pasture" —> "Sheep are helpless! I can take care of myself."
Thank you Lord for convicting my through your word and please help me to notice my prideful self and realize You're everything and I'm here today and gone tomorrow. Amen.
