was an absolute wreck. I was deprived face time with my computer as 
well is getting behind the pulpit. I must admit that I was fast 
approaching a point of burnout, and my spouse was getting to the point 
of being burned up with me. 

During the first part of the church service, I had a brilliant idea. I
knew I was on the edge of something or other, so I needed to do some 
fast thinking. As soon as the minister began his sermon, I put my plan 
into action. I began to shout "Amen" at every opportunity during the 
sermon. Obviously, the minister in question was not accustomed to being 
Amened during his sermon. I just felt the dear brother needed some help 
along this line. And it worked. My Amening began to spur him on. What 
started out as a very dull monotone sermon developed into something 
rather exciting. The more I Amened, the more excited he became in his 
preaching. 

Together we did a marvelous sermon that Sunday. 

This reminds me of a phrase in the Old Testament. "... One chase a
thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight..." (Deuteronomy 32:30 
KJV) 

The moral is, when you find yourself out of your comfort zone simply
look for your comfort zone.
