For days my bible and notebook, work calendar, articles for a grad school assignment and my computer have all been laid out on the kitchen table waiting for the attention they will hopefully get during one of the free moments that appear during the day. Summer has just begun and as much as I love the carefree, unscheduledness, it really cuts in to my structured, scheduled time. Irony at its finest. But then, God, in His loving-kindness grants you a morning with boys sleeping in and in a 13 word sentence gives you peace and more than a bit of inspiration.

because they are significant too

On the 45 minute drive from my small hometown to the bigger city in which we attended church you passed through places so small only the ones in the area knew their names.

The same thing was true on my drives from college to back home. The moment the interstate was behind you and state highways lined by trees took over, you would see single houses with no neighbors to be seen, small communities with a drugstore and gas station as the only proof of economy, until you reached the one booming--and I use that term lightly--metropolis that boasts the restaurants and movie theater before driving back again through the forest lined roads waiting for the sign that told you were just 10 miles away.
