It's going to be miserably hot the next week or so.
Yesterday I was in the house listening to the AC running a lot dreading my next electric bill. And I have it set at 82!
I did pay my last bill it was about $50 so hopefully the new one won't be too bad.
But I will need to figure out the Bible Handout. I have the performance fabric t shirt in a very loud safety orange so I can skip the (very hot) safety vest and still be safe. I will need to bring drinks.
But that goes to how committed am I about giving up diet sugars and which is worse diet sugar or real sugar? I can get a real Gatorade type drink with sugar in it or I can get the "Zero" version which has the fake sugars. I am inclined to just get the regular one.
In the meantime I will be bringing extra water to hand out if someone needs it. (Matthew 10:42) When I was 13 I went to to a church event at an amusement park. The concession prices were very high and I only had enough for fries or a drink and I got fries,then got miserably sick with heat exhaustion and nearly passed out. They had to sit me down in the shade for a good while with an icy cold drink before I rebounded. Only much later did I learn antidepressants put you at a risk for heat stroke. It was an awful experience and I would not want anyone else to endure that. Not if I can help out. But a couple people I know got saved so that was good.
And that's the thing. I grew up Presbyterian. They never preached the gospel, how to get saved, ever. They gave me a very nice Bible when I was 8 but that was it. Then a school mate invited me to Baptist VBS (vacation Bible School). They preached the gospel THERE and I got saved. Then I went back to the Presbyterians who still didn't preach to gospel to us kids until we were well into our teens.
I'm a proponent of getting them young before the world gets a foothold, personally. I did confirmation and am a confirmed Presbyterian. If I had to choose it would be the PCA they don't believe in women in authority and have a Biblical view on sex.
I need to take my shower.
