well, i figured its ok if it's not $84.95 - I paid $63.96 instead!! Bargain!! And it was all thanks to wonderful Tim who reminded me that I (he, since technically I had given it to him) had a 20% off Borders voucher! Score! And then when I bought "Fellowship of the Ring" this morning, I got ANOTHER 20% off Borders voucher... so i'll give that back to Tim. See, it's all good :)
Our church is doing this prayer thing for the morning service people (plus me and Tim), where you pray the prayer for the Ephesians (Ephesians 3:14-21) each day for all this month for our church family. I think it's a pretty good idea - because God can do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine - but i find it hard to read prayers sometimes. I like to just speak my own words, you know... or know the words to speak. So I guess if i memorise that passage, then I won't have to complain anymore!
And I'm looking forward to Bible study tomorrow night coz Phil's taking us through the women bit in 1 Timothy (1 Tim 2:9-15). Should be rather interesting. I wonder how the girls will take to it, and how deep Phil will go with it. You can't just pass off everything as "cultural" in the Bible. But where's the limit??
