Jody, Dor, Amos and I have been having such a wonderful time that I havent had a chance to write. Dor and Amos decided on short notice to come down for a visit, as to not miss out on the fun, and arrived last Saturday. We did lots of stuff all week, including a few stints out to Amanda's. Well today, we are all sick, cept for Amanda and Jody. Poor children, poor Dor, poor me. So Jody went with Shawn to worship and Dor, Amos and I listened to a sermon on tape, with a long intermission in the middle for much needed naps (Amos had a mild fever last night and didnt get much rest, and thus Dor didnt either. It seems he's settled in to sleeping tonight though, yay!) Our sermon was called Holiness unto the Lord, mainly about profanity, the various ways that we are profane, as Christians, without even thinking about it. Usually when one thinks of profanity and its definition, they think of swearing, and taking the Lord's name in vain, while this is truly profane, we also are profane when we dont view holy things as God does, when we use holy things vainly. It really reminds me of the shorter catechism Q. 55. What is forbidden in the third commandment?
A. The third commandment forbiddeth all profaning or abusing of anything whereby God maketh himself known. God makes himself known in so many ways, his ordinances, to start with, would be good meditation topics.
