We didn’t have church tonight, so I was able to go to Katie’s in Bacliff to hear some great live music. The Amigos have a regular jam session on Sundays, I wish it were on another evening so that I could go more. Jim of Lone Star Guitar heads it up. He was really playing great tonight, you could tell he took some time off. We had a very good conversation about things spiritual as well. He has written a song that he wants me to hear the next time I go to the shop. Cool stuff.
Instances like this continue to add layers to my thoughts about things spiritual. I really had an urge to go tonight, Jim really had an urge to talk to someone about things that he doesn’t have anyone else to talk to. Cool. Late.

January 2, 2006 at 11:45 amI read your note on forgiveness vs. repentance. It is a great thought. We really should give forgiveness before it is even asked for. I believe that forgiveness comes first. It is by that forgiveness that draws men. To treat someone with forgiveness before they even ask for it is what is a strange religion. But for the individual who recognizes his need for forgiveness, repentance is the way to recieve it. It is the way they forgive themselves.
