Participating in Prayer

Today is Day of Prayer.  It is a day of no classes, which I am very grateful for.  Of course, it means more than that, but due to the motivation of trying to be motivated for homework at all times, I have decided to skip out and work on things I need to do, since there seems to be a constant stream of assignments and readings that I must do.  Not that I’m complaining, because why else am I at school.  However, I still recognize the need for bonding with God and asking him for blessing, I just choose not to do it with the community of Providence.  It is a personal choice not because I prefer to stay away from the crowds?  No, it is simply because of the constant stream of homework, and as a struggling procrastinator, I need all the time I can get.  If I am not working, I am procrastinating.

Although I do not have the time to explain it to you, I found this news story on CNN.com that might interest some of you.  It’s a story about a minister who has decided to set up a chapel for truckers, and has services in a trailer at truck-stops.  (FINDING JESUS AT A GEORGIA TRUCK STOP http://tiny.cc/HfcuK)
