Geeky tidbit first:
I bought a piece of pecan pie yesterday. I paid $3.14 for it. I paid pi for pie. Tee hee.
Important Truth #1: The Holy Spirit does not need me to do things perfectly in order to work. The Holy Spirit's work does not depend on me.
Important Truth #2: As ministers, our foremost priority is to love people. That's it.
I talked to Rev. Supervisor tonight, and we're starting to iron out our misunderstandings. We're not there yet, but we're working on it. I think I have a lot more freedom to be myself with her than I understood. Thanks be to God.
Breathe deeply. Love others. Stop overthinking. Breathe again.

"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was."
