Saturday Coffee

Posted on September 22nd, 2007 in Old-General by Fred McKinnon

Good morning all …

It’s Saturday AM … woke up with my little 3-yr old Rebekah in my bed … but no Joy. She’d gone to the beach for some early AM quiet time. That’s my girl. I really drive her to prayer, no doubt.

Now, sippin’ some coffee, checking some email and a few blogs … getting ready for a great, fun day. We’ve got soccer on Jekyll Island at 1:00 PM. A “Married Live” event with Dr. Richard Marks at church this afternoon at 5:00 PM. Then, UGA versus AL on ESPN in “HD GLORY”.

Joy and I had a great dinner date last night with Deane and Dana, great friends from the ATL area. We don’t see them enough and they are being shown the house FOR SALE next door to us in ten minutes! SSI is calling you.

OK, so I “ran across” a great acronym this AM for the word “SIMPLIFY”. Let me define “ran across” for you:

Craig at LifeChurch had a guest blogger, Abbi Zeliff who posted it at LifeChurch. I hadn’t gotten to it yet, but heard about it on Alex’s blog this AM. He’d heard it on Bobby’s blog. That’s where my trail dead ends. I would’ve been the cool guy to spread the word first, but didn’t spend much time in my Google Reader this weekend. (howz that for a “HT”)

Here it is – check out the original post for more details on how we have to simplify our lives.

S – Slow down
I – Imagine doing less
M – Make time for loved ones
P – Practice patience
L – Learn to gently say no
I – Increase your quiet time
F – Follow your heart
Y – Yield to life, yield to peace, yield to joy

What’s on the docket for your weekend?

For the Kingdom,
Fred
