Treebeard

Well,

Great answers everyone. I would agree that it was God's will that they eat of any tree they wanted, so long as it wasn't the Tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil. Instead of worrying about whether we are doing what God prefers, I'd suggest that we remember that God's preference lies primarily in our being than our doing. What we do simply proves who we are. If we are doing in obedience then we're going to be fine.

Jazzy like the Blues
This week I sent to my first book reading, and first book signing. It was really cool. Donald Miller, author of Blue Like Jazz, spoke at Messiah College and a friend of mine got tickets for a foursome to go and listen. It was really interesting. There's something about hearing an author read with his own inflection that really gives the text a face. I really enjoyed it, and since I borrowed the book and ruined it slightly with the water that was spilled on it, I thought I ought to get it signed for the original owner. It was a great evening and well worth the trip. www.DonaldMillerWords.com
