Warman Glory Conference

For the past 2 nights I have been at the "Glory" conference at Christian Life Fellowship in Warman. This is the first such conference I have been to which has featured healing and miracles happening. The weird thing is that they also have an incredibly good worship band and I have been concentrating on that. C.L.F is a pentecostal church so there is a lot of yelling there. And I have really lost myself and have done things that I normally do not do during worship time at Hope. I've been yelling, dancing, prostrating myself. It's really been incredible. But it's hard to walk out of something like that and go back to the humdrum drudgery of work and daily existence. Okay I am happy about not going tonight because I need to clean my place and call my parents. Also the first night I was there something came over me and I got some bad news (from God?) about someone in my family and I am worried with the amount of times that Mom has been calling me that things are not okay.
Those conferences are very weird things.

Spa and other Random thoughts

Bought a spa book from Coles. And Ricardo's magazine called "Ricardo." Sort of like "O" but instead of a black woman there is a cute Quebec guy on the cover every month. Both have helped me 'destress' from work and other things.

Cleanse

So I went on this cleanse from this book "The Natural Makeover Diet" It suggest you go on a cleanse for 5 days and not eat dairy, grain, or red meat. I usually don't eat red meat anyway, but I love bread and cheese. The first day was Friday, and it was relatively easy to do. Okay I cheated. I had a doughnut on my lunch break, and at the concert I had some squares. But today at lunch I had a salad and was still hungry so I had some soup. Also today I was downtown and passed about 5 hot dog stands saying nope I can't have that. So anywho, after the soup I was still a bit hungry and I went to Superstore, and was walking passed thier hot dog stand going can't have that, and the chips going can't have that. This was weird given that I never want anything from the hot dog stand at Superstore. I find most brands of chips are tasteless, so I usually don't buy them. But I was still hungry and I had 10 dollars left over and I was like I wanna go to A&W, no I can't. Because I am on this stupid cleanse and I am starving myself and my body is rebelling.
I finally gave in and went to Quizno's. I am off the cleanse. I have a nice baguette which will be very nice tomorrow with the goat cheese in my fridge. Looking forward to having yogurt. With Blueberries.

The Girl in the Bubble

I have been listening to Tanya Bargen's sermon repeatedly lately. It relates so much to where I am at right now. Sometimes people who preach can go right over my head and I'll be like, I did not understand what the heck he was talking about. But her message was just so relevant to me. I guess God has been speaking to me through that message telling me that I definitely do live in a bubble. I have never thought why was I born in north america and not africa? why was I born to a stable home evironment?, why are my parents married 32 years and so and so's are divorced? But I know people who have had those questions. My brother in particular. I tend to be very selfish he told me that years ago and it has always been in the back of my mind. I remember reading "Blue Like Jazz" where the author talks about how he is so self centred and I am like that is definitely me.
