Ten Signs You've Just Returned from a Higher Things Conference

Posted At: 6:50am by AgentDelta
I didn't leave MN until Saturday. I woke up Saturday morning and packed all my stuff, making sure I'd be ready in time for breakfast. I then proceeded down to the cafeteria, only to find out that it wouldn't be open until after I'd left. So, I went back to my room and wrote these, which I now post for your reading pleasure.

10 Signs You've Just Returned from a Higher Things Conference:

  1. Random parts of the liturgy pop into your head when you’re not busy thinking about something else.
  2. You make sure you are ready for church by 9:00AM. You are not deterred by the fact that it is Monday.
  3. You have to keep reminding yourself that you’ll be able to go to bed before midnight.
  4. You are depressed because you haven’t attended a class taught by Pr. Cwirla today.
  5. You look for your lanyard before you leave your room.
  6. Pr. Cwirla is your hero.
  7. You hope you’ll bump into your friends at breakfast, before remembering they live halfway across the country.
  8. You feel funny leaving your house without your backpack.
  9. You think your congregation doesn’t sing loudly enough.
  10. When your pastor goes up to the front of the church at the beginning of the service, you look for the ten other pastors that should be with him.

11. You don't feel an urge of expectant excitement every time you hear the words "for you" in a church service.

12. Your pastor looks at you funny when you request 10 services in the week

13. Your friends ask if you have a new perfume and you reply it's just the incense infused into my clothing reminding me where Jesus is.

Amen! That's not just a cliche either. When you decide to recite 'Salvation unto us has come' for a declamation at the county fair, Higher Things must have had something to do with it. You also wonder whether your pastor will be shocked if you ask him to hear your confession.

Man, that is all so true!!! I can't wait 'till next year and it only just ended! Hopefully we'll be able to go to the same one in '08.
