I'm tired. It's been a long week and I'm still a little under the weather.
I was supposed to go to a wedding this morning. I didn't go after all. As I wrote yesterday, I was thinking about just going to the ceremony and forgoing the reception. In the end, I had to pass up both. I guess I wasn't supposed to attend, in the end. There's a part of me that's tempted to think the fact that I wasn't able to buy a gift (despite planning to do so) as a sign that I wasn't meant to go. I still would've gone without a gift, but it wasn't what God had planned for me today. Oh well.
Other than that, no much else is going on. Hopefully, I'll be well (or at least, well enough) for church in the morning. Every time I miss, I always end up wishing I could've gone, no matter the circumstance that led to my non-attendance. I need the fellowship that I don't really get during the week. We're called not to forsake the gathering of the brethren, and for me, it's a critical part of my growth as a believer. This is especially important for me, as someone who was once such a recluse.
I did get a pleasant surprise today, though. I received my federal tax refund today. I have an extra $143.00, which I can certainly use. I pray that I would use it wisely.
