I have been tagged by Chris Lockhart. In his response he gave a deep and profound thought from the sentence he pulled from his archives. Don’t look for great insight here.
The rules:
1. Delve into your blog archive.
2. Find your 23rd post (or closest to).
3. Find the fifth sentence (or closest to).
4. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions. Ponder it for meaning, subtext or hidden agendas
5. Tag five people to do the same.
From July 19, 2004: The post related to the day before when Terri and I had traveled to Crossbridge Church of Christ in Birmingham. We had enjoyed a day of worship with Greg Miles, Gary Brantley and all of our other new friends at Crossbridge.
“This is truly a group of people who love God and effectively express that love and praise to Him during their time together. “
I don’t know that there is any greater meaning than what I wrote. The only subtext or hidden agenda I can think of is that they had something I was looking for. The sincerity of their praise, the unstructured and yet organized gathering made us both feel welcomed, loved, and right at home. The most memorable thing was the strong feeling of the presence of God during the time of worship. I know that this church is no more perfect than any of the rest of us are. But, they have a Spirit there that I love. I feel a return trip coming on!
So there you have it.

If you have already done this for someone else don’t worry about it. I didn’t go back and read all of your archives to check. I know I have done this for somebody but I think I did it as a comment. This time it gave a little stretch room to find a better post or sentence just in case your sentence was something like “I was pooped!” Have fun!
