Sometimes I feel like I show up for a thing, only to discover that I’m the only one that actually wanted to be there… point in fact, no one else felt like showing up.

I suppose that it’s somewhat like telling a joke you think is really funny, but nobody else really laughed at, leaving you to try explaining the details. You finally come to realize, if you had to explain it, well then… as they say, it must not have been that funny.

When I first started writing these Live Wire episodes, I felt sure that others would enjoy hearing about what I was currently studying in the bible. Over time, I’ve discovered that I put a great deal more effort into writing than was useful… when a thing no longer works, it’s time to move on. I’m not sure of what Sundays writings will be from here on out, but aside from mentioning where I may or may not be reading, I’ll leave the rest for your imagination.

In no way am I offended or put out, rather, I’m choosing to put my literary skills somewhere else. In a way, this is a good thing, as I can now run wild and free through the word of God, at whatever pace I wish.

I did finish the book of Judges, which was incredibly aggravating to read, by the way! Over and over again, one bad decision after another, the Israelites just left me feeling sad. I tried to console myself, by reading through both Acts and Romans, but Paul was just as saddened as I was, based on how he wrote about their behavior.

Starting tomorrow, I will be reading through and studying the book of Ruth. Hands down, this has to be one of my favorite examples of such deep, love and faith!

Just sayin…

Have a blessed Sunday!
