September energy burst

September always gives me an energy burst: it is the month of my birthday, the month when school starts (well, not much anymore as many schools start in August now after calendar restructuring), when the lazy heat of summer is broken down with cooler mornings, nights starting earlier....

Momentum is building in several areas. 1) Work promises some long-planned automation projects, which will help meet my overall goals for being here. A test of workflow ingenuity and people skills leading folks through change. Other projects in the futurizing/conceptualizing category brewing as well. 2) Home management is improving both in financial terms and relationships--becoming more conscious of the effect of communication (see James 3. 3) Knowing God: He is leading me into new territory, as I continue to learn how to die to self, listen better, venture out. I am leading a small group study in my church this fall, taking the plunge when not too long ago I would have thought myself not ready. Ready? Ready.
