-Picking honeysuckle with Logan and pulling the stamens out to taste the honey. There's no greater hint of summer than the smell of honeysuckle.-Sitting in chapel, and suddenly being flooded with ideas for my sermon. I feel the Spirit more tangibly than ever when I'm writing a sermon. I just read the text and exegete it for a few days, and don't stress, because that "aha!" moment always arrives in its own time, and then the sermon just comes. This also keeps me from second-guessing myself too much, because I know that the Spirit has guided the whole process of preparing my sermon.
-I know I include this one a lot, but having my friends over for Sex & the City and wine every Tuesday. We laugh at the show, but the main event is when we mute the commercials and talk. We've helped each other through many a decision or crisis, and I know I can tell these women anything. Tuesday nights are often the highs of my week.
