Time to Share

I don’t know if any one will really be interested in this or not, but I have decided to spend a little time just sharing some things about what happens in my life.  This may become a weekly feature, and it may be a weakly feature too.

Some of you may have noticed that I maintain several blogs, and I have had some wonder how I do it.  I have a set time of the day when I work on them and it is usually the time which I am doing this right now, and that is about 4:50 a.m.  I get up each morning any where from 2:30 to 4:30 during the Summer months, and when School begins I will be getting up about the same time.  Only when School begins Thursday morning I will set the alarm the night before.  I have not been doing that during the Summer vacation time.

During the School months I drive a School bus.  My route is a little over 100 miles per day, and I haul approximately 55 kids from Kindergarten age through 12th grade.  Some of the roads I drive have steep hills and sharp winding curves with narrow roads and no shoulders for any mistake.  One of the things they say about driving a School bus is that the driver is a person with all their troubles behind them :>). 

The thing about getting up as early as I do is a blessing to me.  I see the sunrise every morning, and see it set every evening.  Sunrises are wonderful.  When you see the sun rising over the horizon of the farthest hill to the East, and often morning clouds with it forms one of the rarest beauties you can ever see.  I marvel in our Lord’s Creation.

With these early mornings that means I can spend the day studying the Word, preparing sermons for Sunday morning and evening, and Bible Studies for Wednesday evening.  It also gives me time for visiting the people when I can.  There are times I may post an article on a blog during the day, but I try not make a habit of it, and then, only if my work is nearly done, and I just need some time to take my  mind off that subject or something.

I hope this has not seemed like a rambling mad man’s writing.  I will post the Matthew article I usually post on Wednesday; on Thursday – God willing. 

Have a great and wonderful day in the Lord.
