Dear Father,
Thank you for this day. A lot is going on. There have been three shootings in different parts of the country in three days. Things have happened to close family and friends, including death of a loved one, a car wreck, and other things as well. I need to talk to E. and T. tonight. Didn’t think I’d be calling T. every day, but maybe for a week or two, just until he gets settled. I’m hanging out with him later this week, Lord willing.
My own personal life has been good. We were without power this morning, but fortunately I went to church. They had it back on this afternoon. Someone had hit the pole with their car. I hope they are okay, but haven’t heard any news about it.
What is news? What makes news? Is it sensational? Surprising? Hits an emotional chord or makes you react in some way? I’m not sure. I was able to game a bit today. I probably won’t be able to for the rest of the day. I get off too late tonight. It’s good that I didn’t this morning. I missed part of Sunday school, but I usually do.
