Dallas – Part 1

November 21, 2008 | By Mark | 1 Comment

I got into Dallas last Friday. I’m still looking for jobs without much success. I went to the singles group for the church Watermark on Tuesday night. Kind of scary. There were like 300 people there and I didn’t know any of them. I did make progress and met one person, so that was good. He gave me a card with a number on it and asked me to give it back to him next week. Looking back, though, I can’t really remember what he looked like.

The young adult leader looks like a cross between a football player, basketball player and male supermodel. He said at the end, “there is more to life than Tony Romo’s finger or Jessica Simpson’s cleavage”. Kind of an interesting and unexpected quote from a pastor.

I’m going again tonight.

Great quote by the pastor. Good to hear you made it Texas.

Dying of thirst
“If you’re thirsty, you may drink. Are you not thirsty?” said the Lion.

“I’m dying of thirst,” said Jill.

“Then drink,” said the Lion.

“May I – could I – would you mind going away while I do?” said Jill. “Will you promise not to-do anything to me, if I do come?”

“I make no promise,” said the Lion.

“Do you eat girls?” she said.

“I have swallowed up girls and boys, women and men, kings and emperors, cities and realms,” said the Lion. It didn’t say this as if it were boasting, nor as if it were sorry, nor as if it were angry. It just said it.

“I daren’t come and drink,” said Jill.

“Then you will die of thirst,” said the Lion.

“Oh dear!…I suppose I must go and look for another stream then.”

“There is no other stream,” said the Lion.
