However, as often happens, maybe I am focusing on the wrong thing as I worry about my future. From our Bible Study of John Piper's book What Jesus Demands From the World: When a person is born anew and experiences repentance, his attitude about Jesus changes. Jesus himself becomes the central focus and supreme value of life. Before the new birth happens and repentance occurs, a hundred other things seem more important and more attractive: health, family, job, friends, sports, music, food, sex, hobbies, retirement. But when God gives the radical change of new birth and repentance, Jesus himself becomes our supreme treasure. So, before I get back into my interview prep, I am taking a few minutes for Bible study and prayer to know His will.

You remember that we had a Chorale concert Sunday night. On the drive, Dad told me a story about our niece, Audrey. She chose a book for my sister (her Grammy) to read that Dad thought was an odd choice. It was about the way our Founding Fathers set up legislature and laws, etc. It was quite a long book and she sat patiently throughout the entire reading. When it finished, she told Grammy, "I thought it was about pirates." Why did she think that? The drawing on the cover of the book showed a man in a tri-cornered hat.
Is your Christmas shopping all done? I think ours is, thanks to MBH (My Better Half). In that theme, here is Santa visiting the girls at the breakfast at NPX.

Well, I have about 3-1/2 hours to get ready, so I will leave you now. Oh, a friend at Apollo (actually, the guy that helped me get that job sent me info on another job possibility, so I will check on that after my interview. Remember, pray at 1pm.
