Interesting day today - good feedback on my sermon, but the attendance was low.  This has really been a difficult season.  It seems like we are being pulled in multiple directions.  At first glance, it looks like things are dieing.  But then you look a little deeper and God is doing odd things.  I'm lead to the same question that I have been asking for the past two months: "What in the world is God up to with us?"  At this point I don't have an answer.  I'll let you know when I do.

Until then, in the words of Bob Dylan:

Well I'm pressing on
Yes, I'm pressing on
Well I'm pressing on
To the higher calling of my lord.

Many try to stop me, shake me up in my mind
Say, "Prove to me that He is Lord, show me a sign"
What kind of sign they need when
it all come from within
When what's lost has been found, what's
to come has already been ?

Well I'm pressing on
Yes, I'm pressing on
Well I'm pressing on
To the higher calling of my lord.

Shake the dust off of your feet, don't look back
Nothing can hold you down, nothing that you lack
Temptation's not an easy thing,
Adam given the devil reign
Because he sinned I got no
choice, it run in my vein.

Well I'm pressing on
Yes, I'm pressing on
Well I'm pressing on
To the higher calling of my lord.
