Random Thoughts

I was at the doctor yesterday. It was my routine checkup but also time to fill out this part of the adoption paperwork.

When I put my urine sample inside the little trap door I wrote “Hi!” on the cup. The doctor came in smiling later and said, “Got your note. Thanks for that.”

I’m already keeping a mental list of other things to write on the cup for future visits:

1 – Use only in case of jellyfish attack.
2 – Liquid gold.
3 – If you need more just let me know.
4 – So what do you do with this, exactly?
5 – Whoever handles this should be featured on Dirty Jobs.

Always make routine or dull moments fun. Life is too short not to do so and you might brighten someone’s day.

Great post by my friend Rob on Jesus and the desert temptation. Bet you’ve never heard this stuff before and it should put into perspective just what was happening between Jesus and Satan.

Love this blog entry on the Number 1 Habit of Highly Creative People. Couldn’t agree more.

I would add to the list that time reading the Bible is of utmost importance to my work. When I don’t read creative work is like being dragged off by a grizzly into the woods. When I take time to walk with God not only am I painting a picture of the grizzly but he’s sitting still and talking to me.

Aaron Sain and I are speaking at Lipscomb’s Summer Celebration tonight and tomorrow night. Very much looking forward to it. Our topic is Second Impressions: Creativity and Relevance in Today’s Culture.

We also produced a video on Psalm 34 (the theme for the conference). We will post it as soon as it shows at Lipscomb. There are 22 awesome people in this one – all friends, all fellow Jesus followers. Two of my favorite people in the world also appear. Stay tuned!
