A New "Do" for Pastor
Monday night we had pizzas and four square at the church for our young people, and I had a blast. I certainly hope they did. Because I am getting my hair cut this Thurday, I thought it might be fun for them to help me move on in to the 21st century by choosing a new hairstyle for pastor. We suggested the Wavy but Grey look of Richard Grear (left) and the long and straight look of Elton John (right). Both got a laugh but neither won. Then we even tried the long look of Al Pacino (left again) and the short and frosted look (below to the right). Well, we had 
great
fun, but they didn't choose any of these four! They chose the one centered below! I can't believe it! Can you? Maybe they chose that one because it is so impossible (short, dark, curly, hair on this head? I don't think so, but we can dream can't we?

Just in case you were worried, I don't think they will be doing any these looks with my hair. It's just not happening. Well, anyway, Monday night the laughter was good. The pizza was good, and the four square was intense.
As our evening came to a close we were reminded of how importatnt it is for our every day lives to reflect our relationship with Christ. We don't leave our faith at the door when church is over. We don't put it on and take it off like our Sunday clothes. God really wants us to serve Him with all of our heart soul and strength every day and in every area of our lives. From church to school or work, to our entertainment and even cyberspace, God wants our lives to reflect his holiness. So, today I want to encourage you again as you look at every area of your life to ask the question that Charles Sheldon made so popular in his book, "In His Steps," "What would Jesus do? " Peter wrote it this way in 1 Peter 2:21:
This is my prayer for you today that God will empower you to follow Christ's example and be an example of one who is doing what Jesus would do, following "in His steps." Have a blessed day.

leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.
