  So we have completed yet another 4th of July Holiday here in the United States. I had a most wonderful and blessed day on Sunday that started out serving breakfast to homeless people of Downtown Houston. I didn't know how that would turn out because there was not a breakfast serving crew established for Sunday so I asked as many people as I thought would be willing to be up and working at 6:30am to help. As it turned out I got more help to serve breakfasts than I realized. That's how the day started, from there I went to a church that has a reputation for being somewhat stodgy and uptight, to share worship with a most amazing and blessed person.
What I found in the service was much different than what I anticipated and was truly a wonderful service. Great worship, great music, a wonderful liturgy, and even better I had a tremendously wonderful person sitting next to me on my right. This only brings me to about 10am so a busy first part. From there it was on to watch the Astros game (if you could call it that). It wasn't great baseball from an Astro's fan point of view but from the view of loving baseball, this was truly an amazing game. What a way to spend the 4th of July, watching America's pass-time. To top that off as you walked into Minute Maid Park there were tables set up to write post cards to the troops overseas...all paid for by Major League Baseball (at least they did something right this year). Let me backtrack to Saturday night when I was fortunate enough to provide the sound for the Humble Area Chamber of Commerce Independence Day Celebration.
Back to Sunday and the 4th. The firwork celebration for Humble was amazing to see that many people coming together with no agendas other than to enjoy a firework display. It was amazing to watch btu even more amazing was watching all the families up and down the street, literally I think all the families, letting off firewrosk together in an almost coordinated neighborhood firework display. Not too many places you are able to see it. That ended the weekend most spectacularly. So pointless rambling which is not uncommon for those who know me well, but again a chance to see the kind of things that run through my mind. "Blessed is he whose faith is in the Lord" - Psalm 40
