It went pretty well tonight. I think it's gotten into the swing of things for us all. I think it's rather amusing how there's always a core group of half dozen to a dozen people who are always there (me included), and the other half of the group that seems to fluctuate on any given week. I'm not sure why this amuses me exactly, but then again, there a good many such things for me that I can't really question, at least not if I want an answer.
But as I said, I think tonight was pretty good. The thing I like best (not counting Maria, as she's more of best part of any time she's around sort of thing.) is it's a time for me to really just stop thinking about everything aside from God. I can just let all my worries and thoughts of the outside world go away, and listen to God a bit better. Although, I must sadly admit that every minute or so I tend to glance over to Maria. She was in my line of sight tonight, so it made it harder not to, which makes me feel a bit stunted in the head to keep ignoring the speaker talk about Jesus. Although, it wasn't ignoring him so much as timeslicing. I have two threads going on in my head, God and girl. At least the God thread takes up more time during the group. *sighs*
Anyway, I've signed up for a small group deal-y too, which I think will be on tuesday nights, which isn't bad. It's especially good because of what the speaker pointed out when he was closing up. That one of the things we need is other christians around to sharpen us and strengthen us in our faith, and that is something I am seriously lacking. I hunger for it really.
And on a side note, I love The Simpsons. I learn so many cool things from that show. Like, I use perspicacity all the time now because of that show. And as of the episode tonight, I'm so using perambulate more often. I know it just means to walk around and such, but it's really fun to say.
