Who is that you say? Spud who? Spud is on Q. I don’t know a Spud. Sure you do, he is the short slow stocky fellow from the fury clan. He is coming to the Epicenter? That is what I heard. Well that is disappointing. Maybe we should visit Fury or the Shipyard. I heard they pay pretty well over there. I was offered cash once. Yea it is amazing what they do for your commitment. Tempting! I say we stick it out and see what this so called Spud has to offer.
These were the conversations I heard repeatedly before this mornings visit to the Epicenter. I heard Epicenter guys could be swayed. I heard they were easy. Heard they liked to have their egos stroked by the “powers to be” in the inner circles. Heard if you offer them a little ego candy, they would bolt and give up their so called “epicenter convictions”.
I couldn’t believe it. I wouldn’t believe it. The foundations of F3Greenwood were built on the solid commitment of these same Epicenter guys. These are my heros. These are the legends. Now they were being labeled potential turn coats? Surely they wouldn’t go to Fury. I mean, Jesse is great and all but could he really sway them? Shipyard has a lot to offer and Sugar brings it every time but then again Epicenter is getting a Sugar disciple. I cautiously pulled up this morning. I admit I was nervous. This after all was A WHOLE NEW WORLD. Look, there is Meatloaf, oh hi Thumper, Judge Hairy it’s good to see you. Is that Pebbles, Xray, Roach, Bambi in the distance. Here comes Polly and Cold Feet in a sweat. Its awesome to see you guys. Where is Sparkle? Surely they didn’t get to him? He by all means is the bed rock of Epicenter. He will be here in a few I am sure. I will leave a block for him. I am sure he is just running late. These guys are faithful. My trust has been restored. These Epicenter guys are studs and are the real deal. I can rest again.

NMM –
Matthew 6:34 says Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble on it’s own. Your QIC explained how easy it is to say don’t worry but oh how hard it is to apply. We don’t put trust in Christ where it belongs. “No man ever sank under the burden of the day” wrote George MacDonald. “It is when tomorrow’s burden is added to the burden of today that the weight is more than a man can bear. Never load yourself so.” When we begin to worry, we need to remember that God does not intend for us to live a life of worry. He has everything planned out. So when daily problems come up, don’t sit and stew over the potential outcome. Put your faith in him and he will see you through.
