Connections

Tomorrow I'm heading out to Chitek Lake for a few days of connection and prayer.


I've got some things I'm taking along to pray over for people, and there will be some good and challenging discussions happening there. I'm really looking forward to it.


So if it's quiet till the weekend, that's why. I'll be working on increasing my bandwidth to God.


This morning while still in bed, Lauralea gave me my early birthday present!! (Na, not that). She gave me a cool shortwave radio. I love radio's, always have, so she had bought me a great little radio. Cool.


Then, it was broken so I returned it for an exchange at Radio Shack. What is with the sales staff at that place??? Can't they afford to hire anyone who even knows what a radio is? That should be number one on the sales staff hiring test. Picture A is a picture of a mountain in the Swiss Alps. Picture B is a transistor radio. To pass the test you would have to select the picture of the Radio.


The guy I was dealing with today would have picked the mountains, easy. I asked him what frequencies a certain radio covered. He went to look on the box and came back 20 min. later and informed me that the frequencies weren't't included, I would have to purchase later on, by themselves.


I don't believe it.


I usually end up informing the staff about their own products.


So, as God reminds me of you I pray for you, by name. (See, that's where it pays to leave comments!!)

    LOL @ that!



    There are occasions when I wonder if some people should be allowed out unaccompanied.

  2. So do you purchase the frequencies there, or do you have to get them by mail-order? And can you get a bulk rate if you buy them all at the same time? Or do you need to buy them individually? And can I get that gift-wrapped?

  3. Tell you what Dan, send Randall a cheque for $100 and I'll ship you a box overflowing with radio frequencies. There - an offer you can't refuse :)

  4. My friend Sharon C.is arriving back from Mayo Clinic today. They can do nothing more for her there than they can in Saskatoon. I called her Mom yesterday to see what was happening and she mentioned "us" (our church) having a healing service for Sharon and annointing her with oil. Let's talk about that..... Please keep praying... and I know you've probably already left.......

  5. Randall, it was so great to get to meet you at the cabin this week! Take care, and hopefully there will be a strong coffee or hot tea in our future, soon.



    p.s. The title of your blog, "just life," now has an entirely different meaning for me, thanks to LT. :)
