Perspective

Well, I keep clicking around on the net this morning and then coming back here and seeing this blank page. Kind of like opening the fridge all evening and expecting to see something different inside.

I went to bed with a raging headache last night and woke up with it this morning. There are worse ways to start a Monday. In days gone by it could've been a hangover headache and it's not so there you go. Perspective is a beautiful thing. So is headache medicine.

Just read you previous entry, but will comment here. Your remarks concerning the women's heads being covered in church took me back to old-time holiness in the 70s. A woman's hair was her "glory" and she wasn't allowed to cut it. She wasn't, in fact, allowed to do a lot of things. Men had their own set of restrictions, too; but the women caught the harder side of things for sure. Yet, like you, the wife and I look back and do not regret those days. In truth, if their doctrinal bylaws were stretched a little too tight, it is also a fact that the Spirit met us in awesome anointings that one seldom finds anymore within a congregational setting.....

Women definitely were restricted in ways that had nothing to do with the Spirit. Still happens, too. I don't regret the experience but wouldn't volunteer to go back to that time and place in my journey, either.
