Reading

Update on the Scripture Reading, it was pretty awesome. Flawless. I would have to chalk it up to divine providence, as the immediate day after... it was epic fail.

Monday was supposed to be a relaxing day of reading, and sleeping in.

Instead, I slept in til 9am... attended a meeting, went to lunch with Bros, went home to retrieve my tuxedo, dropped off tuxedo, went to play volleyball, and ended with Zoe meeting.

During the Zoe meeting, I couldn't read for the life of me. My eyes had trouble focusing on the words, and the muscles in my throat and mouth seemed locked. After stumbling through a passage, Scott gave me mercy and let me skip out on most readings. Finally, I gave it another shot....

What escaped my lips could only be described as an immigrant text-to-speech translation. Words flew in Iambic meter, frequently interrupted by the girls' laughter. Multiple times the reading grounded to a halt, as everyone could not contain their laughter. Finally, with great effort on my part, I finished reading the four paragraphs assigned.

I still do not know what it was... hopefully, something that is a random occurrence. We shall see in future.
