Due to some non-drowsy sinus medication that I took right before going to bed I have been awake since 4:00 am. Note to all: non-drowsy medicine will keep you awake, despite what your husband may say. 
During our time experimenting with simple church stuff we have been reading The Imitation of Christ. I’m glad that Dan had the idea to include this in our worship. Meditating on the words of Thomas a Kempis has really encouraged transformation for me. I don’t know what this says about how my spiritual life has been lately, but, each part we read leaves me feeling uncomfortable. But through more meditation/prayer the discomfort soon leads to humility and then a desire for change develops. Few writings besides the Bible have encouraged such transformation in me. I am thankful for the writings of Kempis and how they can help this wandering girl on her Journey.
