I am absolutely, completely bushwacked with fatigue. I had a long day, went to the Raven’s game tonight, came home, went to bed, couldn’t sleep, came out here to the 'puter at about 3:30, put Winamp on random play, and idly surfed the 'net. Then it happened…
“Hosanna” from Jesus Christ Superstar came on…in my 1/2 awake state, I started to day(night?)dream…And I swear I saw myself walking down the street with the teeming millions(population in general, not us) singing “Hosanna” to me, while the powers that be gritted their teeth. I mean, I know I’m wonderful, but I’m not THAT wonderful…am I?
( Don’t Answer!!! )
Hehe, all these years I spent getting drunk, when all I needed to do was go without sleep for a day or so. Who knew? wanders off singing ~ HO sanna, HEY sanna…
“Nothing can be done to stop the shouting.
If every tongue were still,
The noise would still continue.
The rocks and stones themselves,
Would start to sing.”
A while ago my Pastor very kindly brought me up on stage to fill an empty chair, as he’d had a vision of the church with three men always on the podium. Not knowing the etiquette of such things I didn’t go back into the congregation like Ian the Elder did later on, when the preaching started. Nor did I move even when there was a powerful worship session going on, and even the Pastor moved down from the platform. It was then that I suddenly realised I was now raised up facing the entire church, pastors and elders all worshipping passionately… and I’m afraid it took me a moment to decide not to just stand and modestly wave it away: “Oh, no… please… you’re too kind, really…”
I crawled off into a corner and worshipped by myself. There are some things God makes Pretty Clear.
