Procrastination, Wednesday Night, and Bilocationalism

Well, I decided I should post in my blog so here I am. There were several factors in this decision. First of all, I think it has been a couple of weeks since my last post. Second of all, I have three things, one of which I have started, due tomorrow, and this is a good Procrastination (first part of the title) tool. When I said several factors, it mainly meant two, but there are probably some underlying subconscious factors as well.
As for Wednesday Night, my roommate recently informed me that Wednesday night is the place to go for free coffee. He said this after returning from U Cup on a wednesday night, tonight, having gotten free coffee because of friends who work there and were closing and would have just thrown out the coffee had he not taken it. I told him I was at Wednesday Night and didn't get any free coffee but he didn't believe me and said I couldn't have been there since I was here. I tried to make the argument that he was here too so by his logic he couldn't have been at wednesday night, but he still did not agree so I let him know that I was at two locations at once, both at Wednesday Night and at our house. He said that would only be possible with the Spiritual gift of teleportation (which, by the way, my sister is supposed to be working on a teleportation device for me and also reminds me of Jumper (I think that's what it's called)) to which I responded that I actually have the Spiritual Gift of Bilocationalism. He really didn't have a response for that, so I am pretty sure he finally must have given in due to my profoundly insightful logic and persuasion.
On that note (C# if you couldn't figure out which note it was) I should probably start doing my homework. Goodbye and

When it rains, it pours

The title was actually supposed to be random, but as I was writing it I thought of a couple applications. First of all, it rained yesterday, for the second Monday in a row in the heart of winter. I liked it. It was a nice change. One thing that bothers me is when people make negative statements about the weather, especially for no reason, especially about rain. I like the rain. Sometimes, I don't really get excited about getting wet. However, I generally enjoy the rain. Second of all, as I always say, if you can't control it, you might as well enjoy it. We cannot control the weather. However, we can control our attitude about the weather. So, why not be happy?
The second application has to do with the winter retreat this past weekend. The title of the weekend was Drenched. We talked about letting God's presence and blessing and all that good stuff fall on us and getting rid of the things that are in the way. I have felt drenched lately, in reference to the title of this post, I have felt like it has been pouring, but not necessarily in a good way. I have been learning a lot about myself and things that need to change in my life and stuff like that, and I have gotten somewhat overwhelmed. However, I have also been learning some good things about the authority we have in Christ and about the Holy Spirit being our comforter and friend. In other words, I am realizing that it is good for me to learn all of these things about my life, but it is also necessary to give those things up to God and allow the Holy Spirit to be the strength of my life, rather than trying to do it on my own, because I can't do it on my own.
These are things I have learned before, but they are becoming more real to me now, and I hope they continue to become more real. I hope the Holy Spirit becomes real to you, as well. Have a wonderful day.
