Unless You Become Like Children…You’ll be Bored

26 03 2008

I was baby sitting the kids of some good friends of mine tonight.  They have four kids and when I was putting them to bed, two of them in particular started a conversation with me.  Daniel is six years old.  Allison is three.   They both wanted to tell me about certain dreams they’ve had.  This conversation happened about 20 minutes ago.  It went like this, word-for-word.

Daniel: “Sometimes when I dream, it sounds like a big train.”
Me: “Wow.”
Allison: “Me too. And I have dogs and pigs.
Me: “Really?”
Allison: “It’s very big, too.”
Me: “The pigs or the train?”
Allison: “Uh, both of them.”

I’m sure those have some sort of theological insight.  It probably has to do with eschatology.




Such a Spiritual Post

I read a blog this morning called, “Reasons I don’t read your blog.”  I took some advice from it.  One of it was to be more humorous–which in recent weeks I think I have been.  He also said “don’t be a pastor.”  Well, I tend to preach, even in “real life”, so that wont’ stop.  Anyway, just so you know, there might be more humor in the future (e.g. Mark Driscol, haha).

All that to say:

I went to the dentist earlier and got two cavities drilled and filled without any Novocaine.  I’ve never done that before. 

How’s that for random?
