Bill, I'm Breaking Up With You

 

Well, I just did the unthinkable..... I deleted Microsoft Office from my computer! Crazy and ridiculous you may say, or you high brow computer folk may not even blink an eye due to you uber cool open source application that is soooooo much better than Office already.

For this Mac user, Office has been a necessity, and a mixed blessing since my “conversion” to the creative side 3 years ago. Apple finally updated and improved the word processing end of Pages to be quite amazing, and added a spreadsheet function named Numbers. Both can open and save as any Office format, and I must say much faster.

My unthinkable act was one of great Joy and made me quite giddy.

What a Value

What is it about food? I mean, not only does it allow for survival, and necessary for life, but in some instances it is the thing that drives us.

Saturday Night 01

I am floored, amazed, and tired. We had our first Saturday night gathering www.frequencynights.com

People showed up, the music was a amazing and done with such heart and passion. Dave and the fellas led us into a holy place of amazement. I am so pumped at what God has done and the potential for what is to come......... which means I must not get distracted with junk and focus. The only snag involved some hot wax on the risers, but the community pitched in to clean after setting up chairs. No one had to be asked, just hearts of service................. still amazed

Sleep overtakes me, I’ll post the link to the podcast later.

Sweet dreams

Saturday is coming

I know I hide it well, but man am stressed out about the launch of this new service! My heart aches at the thought of doing something outside of God’s will, and I just pray that I’m listening with all that I am. I fight my pride daily and only long for others to connect to the person of Jesus that way I have, not be enamored by cool slides, great music, and a slick speaker. I don’t feel prepared enough and definitely not organized enough... (when am I ever) I know it’s Christianeze and I may vomit while typing this, but God’s gotta be in this cause I suck. (oops, did I say that again, dangit I suck at not saying suck... not to self, don’t say that Saturday)

Well, Eli is calling my name for some guitar action, so I’m off for some Doodlebops. (question, what is a Doodlebop, and where are their parents/family)

Week of Rest & Play

I just returned from a week of sun, sand, and family. Oh, yeah, sorry, this is my umpteenth attempt at blogging, and I hope it goes well........ welcome to the ramblings of Mike:) Anyway, I got back Saturday after a week on St. George Island, Florida. After hours in the car we arrived to Casa de Berry in lovely Vienna. Home is a sweet place to be, except for the grass to cut and pile of laundry to do!

I am exponentially more connected to God when I’m at the ocean, on a snow capped mountain, or taking a nap with my son. Again, I learned the lesson that I should unplug and disconnect more often and bask in the creation of the creator, instead of the digital toys and printed books I so enjoy.
