I tend to be a competitive person by nature and love a good argument until I start to lose. Well, wouldn't you know it but these blogs, have trapped me into some debates. Yes, that's it! It's the blog's fault! Here's the background on that:
So, after a conference with Steve and Teri Maxwell in Austin, I've been thinking alot about the use of my time in particular my free time. The Maxwell's maintain that if they can't do something as a family, they don't do it. Many times I've been anxious to go and do something by myself so that I can become refreshed. Well, things didn't go to plan in that I came back refreshed but too soon was ready for some more alone time - as in an hour later :).
Well, so this got me thinking what is actually for my good and for God's glory? I don't think "me time" is it. I'm not sure where my thoughts will meandor to on this subject, but just to let you know - they're in the works and you'll be hearing more from me on this topic soon. I pray that I will keep in mind the freedom of Christ and the love of God as I hopefully come to some conclusions on this. No laws unless God has said it is so, I promise! Don't want any grumblings about Pharisees and antinomians here ;)

Heehee, I tend to be a peacemaker and I do not love to argue so you wont pull one out of me.
Will you define "free time" and "me time"? What exactly are you picturing when you say these things? Some type of indulgence? Lunch with a friend? Anything that gets you away?
I'm just curious.
aghh! I just typed out a long comment then it somehow got deleted! I'll write more tomorrow, Lord willing! Sorry!

P.S. I'm so glad the Lord is dealing so mercifully with your heart right now. Will continue praying...
