Churchie Girl

I like the sandwiches Associated Supermarket on 57th Street makes because they include little trinkets of chocolate with them. I went there after church with Susan to pick out one I would have for lunch or dinner tomorrow. I wish I had twenty dollars with me that I could’ve spent on food because I saw many things I wanted. I had wondered if Ciao Bella ice cream and sorbet had a mango flavor, and they did! It was right there in the freezer section. But it was well over five dollars for a pint. That was the cost of some of the prepared food I had been eying. There was a container of sausage and peppers that I wanted for $5.95. Then I looked at the pasta above which was $1.99. I was thinking about paring up the pasta with the sausage, but the pasta only came in a small serving and I would need a big serving to equal the amount of sausage that was there. So I finally decided on a grilled chicken wrap (the receipt described it as grill chix) with cheddar cheese and salsa. Umm, that sounds good and healthy. Paring it up with a big bag of Doritos like I did, not so healthy. I don’t think I’m going to eat the whole bag, or will I? I find those chips to be irresistible. I got two chocolate trinkets with my wrap! A hard candy and a Dove milk chocolate. Usually they just give you one. There was a wrap sandwich that came with a Three Musketeers bar, but I don’t like that. I won’t talk at length about the pastor’s sermon, but I will say that I had to clarify the subject matter with Sue because I wasn’t sure if this was what we were going to talk about. We were going to talk about death! More importantly, are you ready? It was based on Paul’s last letter he wrote while he was waiting his execution, how he was once a dangerous man and how he had changed it all around and now was ready to die because he knew where he was going. There were three questions for us to answer to see if we were ready to die, and I thought I’d be able to answer all three of them, but the last one, Am I experiencing God’s presence in my life? I had to draw a sad face with tears streaming down. I guess until I experience that, I won’t be able to go. The first two, Have I experienced the second birth? and Is God using my life to impact others and glorify Him? Both got checks. The latter I was pretty sure I was right. What am I doing all this writing for? God, please tell me I’m writing for a reason. I’m using my gift like you asked me to. It’s not much of a gift anyway. I don’t think it is. Really, God! When my Philosophy runs out, where am I going to get the money to buy new stuff? I’m almost maxed out on my Macy’s card. Oh, how did I get myself into all this? It’s going to be hard to get myself out! I know the difference between wet and dry. When I’m wet, I have to wash my undies and myself. Then I put on dry ones.
