First Day Back

Well...woke up at oh 6:30 this morning (not by choice but i wont go into that)...so that was an incredible start to the day because I am such a morning person. Then I get to my first class and the proff is pysco and says exams may be slightly traumatic. Tried to transfer and they wouldn't let me. I at least switched it from 8:00 to 10:00 so that might help a little bit. Other than that all it wasn't to bad.

Searching for God Knows What, "Children of Chernobyl" was certainly interesting. It talked alot about war and September 11th. He was mostly (I think) saying that the war is wrong rather war in general sucks and has many casualties. I agree with him completely but I also have to say hey our troops over there and we need to support them even if we don't support the war. I have a few really good friends in Iraq and my boyfriend is in the army so I fully support our troops. But anyway back to the point of the book...

He made an interesting point that we tend to think of Adam and Eve as making one terminal act of betrayal. Really, he says, it is relational. They weren't satisfied with what God gave them. Sound Familiar? We are incomplete without our relationship with God . He also goes on to talk about spiritual warfare and how in a way the war in heaven is the war to explain all wars. Overall a pretty good chapter but, for me, lacking the practicality of his previous chapters.

I don't care if you support Bush or the war but the reality is our troops...fathers, brothers, mothers, friends...are still serving for us.
