Sleeeeeepy...

Why is it that I don't get inspired to write until I'm overly tired and should be in bed? I know it has a lot to do with everyone else in my household being in bed too... and the fact that it's nice and quiet and dark...

I like the dark. Some people like lots of bright and shiny light coming in every square inch of their home. I admit everyone needs some light now and then, but I'm more of a dark and dusky, cloudy day type girl myself. There's a coziness about it that just appeals to me.

Okay, well I don't know where all that came from, but anyway...

I am sleepy, but I'm excited because I helped put up our new banners at church tonight. They were given to us by another church in town, and they are just beautiful! Our pastor is a bit worried that some of our older members might have a bit of a conniption come Sunday morning, but I think it will be fine.

They are high quality and very well made... they hang on either side of the baptistry on the front choir wall and really dress up the room. One reads "KING OF KINGS" and the other reads "LORD OF LORDS."

In addition to the banners, we also added some wall crosses to take up some of the vast empty space on the back wall of the sanctuary. It's nothing gaudy or distasteful... it just looks more like a place of worship than a plain jane old building.

Personally, I'm really excited to see what people say. I, as well as anyone, know change isn't always appreciated by everyone. But I think this is a positive change. We'll see.

I have a lot more topics brewing that I will be writing about soon. But for now I think I will just go to bed. So until next time...
