today at the tuesday morning ladies’ coffee devotional fun time the world famous Tina Sewell (that’s in case you want to google it. hee.) did the devotion and it was about bubbles. look, i can’t explain the whole thing, okay? but the point was that bubbles are pretty, but they don’t last and so why do we chase after bubbles when we could chase after something that lasts like God. so THEN she asked us to share the “bubbles” in our life.

well, as you can imagine no one said anything and we quickly changed the subject to things like pets and the internet and surprisingly, bubbles. but i sat there thinking, “gee, what is my bubble? what do i chase after instead of God?” and i couldn’t think of anything at first because of the chasing metaphor. i kept thinking that i don’t chase after things because i’m lazy and i hate to run. but then it hit me. and i said out loud, “hey, i’ve got a bubble to share.” and i told them that i spend more time on my website than i do reading the Bible or praying. and how sick is that, right? especially if you consider i only spend about 30 minutes updating and checking the message board.

and it’s not like i don’t have time, right? i mean, here i am, trying to read 50 books in a year. i probably could’ve read the whole Bible by now. and you want to know something else? i’ve never even read the whole Bible. the Bible, which is supposed to be my holy book, and i’ve never read it all. do i know what happens in the book of Haggai? no, i’ve never read that one, and you know what? it’s only one page long. so is Obadiah, but do you think i’ve read that one? no. heck, i’m lucky if i spelled it right.

what kind of fan of God am i if i’ve never even read His book?

holy shit. i’m a poser! yuck, is there anything more lame?
