7 Hour Realizations

I drove home today. 7 hours all to myself. I had some hard hitting reminders and realizations as I drove. Crazy what you can meditate on and give some serious thinking time to in 7 hours on the road. Here they are:

• My wife is INCREDIBLE. I mean absolutely amazing. I’ve never met anyone like her.
• My son is more important than anything (after God and my wife!)
• My dad has a tattoo now, and my siblings and I gave it to him for Christmas. Weird. I didn’t say all of these things would be spiritual.
• I’m speeding! (As I saw the highway patrolman’s lights go on…)
• I have a LOT to do in 2009.
• The Connection Church is an absolute God thing. Nothing can explain what all has happened.
• The Connection Church hasn’t arrived. We’re just getting started…
• I need to dream more God-sized dreams.
• I need to learn how to lead people to get more done with less effort in less time. It is possible. Synergy.
• I need to be more patient.
• I need to take a 2 or 3 day sabbatical with absolutely no technology buzzing at me.
• I had better get my knee looked at.
• and last…I hope we have eggs and cheese at home.
