I will soon have the house ALL TO MYSELF for at least 3 weeks – the rest of the family is going to the States for a family wedding.  I wasn’t interested in going, since the lure of being a bachelor for 3 weeks was too strong!  I love my family but one word was resounding in my heart when I heard the news and the date of the travel – Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!

One of the things I plan to do during this time is to catch up on my watching of Lord of the Rings (again!)  I have watched these three movies so many times that I can ad-lib along with the movie if it is on…. don’t u hate people who say the next line before the actor does on screen? ( )  :lol:  Well, that’s me!

As I said over at ShawnW’s place, I hear God speak in several ways – one of the most unusual being that the Holy Spirit reminds me of movie quotes that fit into the theme of what He’s trying to say to me. (For example, look at my comment section of the last post.)

So one of my personal missions is to ‘research’ for my next post by re-watching the entire LoTR trilogy (AGAIN – Oh JOY!)  God speaks so much to me about fellowship (which was the theme of my last series), spiritual warfare, courage and sacrifice through that movie!  I wanted to research fellowship as well as spiritual warfare, so expect to see some LoTR themes for a couple posts.

For those who are praying for me, knowing that I’m going through some stuff…. a heart-felt THANK YOU!  I’m seeing breakthrough…. God is working in my life!  Keep praying that I come out of the dark wilderness with the power of the Spirit – like Jesus did!
