Scattered Thoughts

Yesterday was my sister's birthday. It was cool. My sister and her friend and I went sledding at this place called City Forest where they have constructed these iced louges that you can sled down. Then, that night my dad hooked up a pinata shaped like a flower to our chandelier. This was done out of neccesity as it was too cold to go outside to hit the pinata therefore we improvised. It was so funny watching my sister and her friends take a plastic bat and swing at this pinata hanging from the chandelier while my dad held the chandelier so that it would not fall off.
Colossians 3:22-23 was talking about doing everything heartily unto the Lord and not to men. It talked about in previous verses to not be men-pleasers. So often I do things to please people or be seen by them when my motive should be out of love for God and to please Him. Doing things heartily also takes away a lot of the comfort and laziness that I want and seek after. To do things heartily I have to pour myself out for my God because He is worthy!
Recently, I have been shown a website that is so cool called www.woot.com where they take a product, just one product, and sell it at discount until it is completely sold out and then they start on a different product. You may want to check it out as sometimes they have pretty cool stuff.
Last night for my sista's b-day party my dad grilled up some hamburgers outside our garage in 8 inches of snow. It was really cool seeing the snow all around while we were sitting around a fire grilling.
sorry for the scattered thoughts and hope you are well.
