Toussaint

It is officially All Saints Day. We do nothing for it here of course, but I am sure the French do as they have a name for it, Toussaint something.

Today I slept in until 1:00pm. How terribley lazy of me. My boday awoke natually at 9:57, but I laid in my bed and thought of what I had to do today. And the answer was nothing. All the girls would be previously occupied until dinner, and since it was a Saturday, I would have no help to do. So I rolled over and slept for four more hours. I then proceeded to get up and run 7.6 miles, take a shower, eat, and put together a plausible Halloween costume. By the time I was finished, it was time to trick or treat and since I have been busy. It worked out well to sleep in so late. Even though it was sinfully lazy of me.

I feel I have disappointed God more than that. I didn't get up in the meeting today. I have been so good about praying lately, and about taking my thoughts captive, and being awake to my own sin. Yet I couldn't get up tonight to testify. I knew I should have, but I didn't know what to say or where to stand or anything and I excused myself far too much. God must be disappointed in me, not to mention all the other witnesses in heaven. Well, I am sorry to disappoint you all, but I will work with boldness and I will give my testimony next week, even if it sounds like I am speaking Chinese. I will have the heads of the Philistines and be bold and testify.
