Minties

Sometimes life can be , not boring, because only boring people get bored! but it can be flat, unmoving, still and stale like bread that has been left in the sun for toast.

crispy and harsh - i know

It is in these times that we need minties (whether it be a spiritual one or a Sweet or even a word of wisdom) . a quick freshen up , a pit stop.
life is a journey and we all need a rest stop. like when going driving we need to "Stop-revive-Survive" every two hours. doesn't that just show us that on our life journeys, which requires more than cruise control we need to take a chill pill- or a mintie for a freshen up, pretty regularly ?

in my life at the moment i am moving house-fun stuff- having to throw a lot of stuff out is liberating and also annoying! one of the things i came across was an old mintie wrapper i took a brief look at it before chucking it out , thinking not much of it, it consisted of a cartoon guy holding his electric guitar with the amp on the floor and the wires all frayed.

its moments like these we need minties.

as a song leader and a member of the music team of my awesome youth movement at my church "INFERNO" i know that this would be annoying to everyone!
Ha ha ha, if this happened we would definitely need a mintie- actually more than this, we would need A SURVIVOR-REVIVER STOP! which would involve prayer!, yes a lot of prayer-izzle
God is good.

And God wants us to chill every now and then.
" in the quiet in the stillness know that i am God"
"cast your cares on me, coz i care for YOU!"

My life is busy, sometimes stale but I can liven it up with a spiritual mintie- YOU CAN TOO
i get freshness from worship- tap on the music - ' itune' into God- sing to him- this livens the mind and spirit i don't know how but it does. i was sick last year with pneumonia and felt down and this year doing my HSC i have to study a bit to get the marks i want- and often i don't want to do it. but in these moments i sing out loud it changes my attitude, something about the spirit of the songs. a favourite to sing is "Nothing is Impossible"(planetshakers) also re freshened me during my mission work in the Bali heat!

I think because worship is making it about God and not our selves it makes us realise that there is something greater than the little moment we are in.

God gave his all so why don't we just give him a little?

i believe that this quote ties this up nicely:

THANK GOD FOR TODAY AND PRAY ABOUT TOMORROW - it only takes a song

i challenge you to SING to him and feel refreshed by the spiritual mintie...
