Super Sunday

A slightly meaningless post, but I'm a bit bored and have nothing to do at work, so that's what happens. Blabbering. That's what happens =).

Something about today, sunny and warm, has instilled in me a large desire to listen to Joshua Radin while in a car headed towards Maine. There's something about Radin that screams road trip to Maine for me. It could be drizzling, it could be sunny, it could be a plain Jane day, and I think his crooning voice would just slide over the miles and miles until the car slithers up to a harbor at sunrise to greet the surprising quiet ripples of boats bobbing against the piers.

I'm working my part time job at a winery right now. Not a soul is coming in. Why should they? It's the day of beer and wings. Not wine and cheese. Well, non-velveeta cheese I mean.

In church today my pastor took some time to focus on praying for Obama as the new president. In the prayer the pastor mentioned the challenges Obama faces, including the economy. Clear as day, my voice rang in my head-- "I'm scared." I look at my fragile job, my unnecessary skills, my meager bank accounts, my friends being laid off.

"I'm scared."

Well then. We need to work on this.

"Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken
nor my covenant of peace be removed,"
says the LORD, who has compassion on you.
-Isaiah 54:10
