This morning we got up early for baseball games.  After getting ready we got rained out.  After breakfast my wife and I both had long naps.  We wondered how we would have made through two ball games and we resolved to get to bed early the next time we have a double header on tap.

In the afternoon I had to push myself to get each boy to practice baseball.  I had to do what we could in the driveway because of the wet yard.  Neither one did a lot but I was glad to get them to do something.

I was pleased today seeing the kids watching religious programming and enjoying it.

In the evening I really wanted to go shopping or to the park or something but I had an appointment to do 12 step work.  I didn't feel unpleasant about this, I just didn't want to pursue my desires.  I am grateful that God has given me a sense of constructive interest in  the work and a passion for joy in helping someone out.

I had thought about my direction in the work with the guy and had been moved to explain self-centeredness and fear in his inventory.  But, I didn't want to hold him up from reviewing his individual resentments.  When we got together he needed to talk about fear.

Their was a nice little thunderstorm during the meeting afterward.  We talked about starting on the simple terms of conception of God.

I found out that Lance Berkman will be playing in the minor league game we are going to tomorrow.

Thanks be to God.
