This is how I'm bringing a bit of the World Cup to my church and to others who aren't part of my church, by asking them to visit www.join1goal.org
the international campaign for Primary Education for all the children of the world, being supported by many involved with the World Cup, amongst others.
Go on, Check it out and sign up!!
(Yes, I was about as subtle as a vuvuzela there and it's not even a Shameless Saturday).

Perhaps at that moment in time, he believed it was.
Maybe, God did want him to spend more time building up real relationships with the people he was among. Getting to know them and listening to their concerns.
Perhaps he should've been doing a bit more practical help, like feeding the hungry or digging a well for clean water.
He believed God had called him to be a missionary, not a theology professor or a hermit right?
Be happy if that was his biggest sin, especially if you were/are working with him. It could’ve been a lot worse.

Thanks huggiesgirl.
I remembered part of it from bible teaching given years ago & the last point discovered yesterday lunch time, a few hours before looking at this site, in conversation with a Christian whose 1st language is Hebrew.

My inter-net connection kept cutting off a few moments ago & my browser kept crashing. I was trying to reply to another commenter that if they pause too long, some-one might feel sorry for them thinking they've lost their place or forgotten their next point.... then you go and get your comment submitted before mine... and now it looks like I got part of the idea of you!

I'm trying not going to get all grumpy about it. Perhaps this is to help keep me humble or something.

For many this is also a present experience.

The whole concept behind the word 'Selah' in the Psalms comes to mind.
That is to pause, think over and reflect on what was said and think about who God is, who you are and what God wants of you at that point in time.

I think it's great that you pause for that reason but don't do it too long, or someone will feel sorry for you thinking you've lost your place or forgotten what to say next!

You'll also be probably aware there are sometimes people who will show no visible reaction but are thinking about what you say.

You've got me wondering how many other people think, awsome phrase there, tweet, then forget what they tweeted?

I sometimes revisit notes I've written down from listening to sermons and talks. I also find sometimes, that just the actual process of writing it down, helps to get phrases or meanings into my memory.

I know of two people who leave short pauses after things they've said, with the intention and hope those listening think over what they have just heard and consider how it may apply to them.
