Moving to the Metroplex has had numerous positive financial advantages. No complaining on my part. However, purchasing gasoline is not one of them. In fact, neither is conserving it. I left Abilene at $2.34 per gallon while filling up about once a week. A month or so later I fill up about every 3 -4 days for a few cents short of $3.00 per gallon. Consequently, no matter how hard I try my gas tank is usually running closer to empty than to full. It is a bummer to have to keep getting gas so often. Today I've got about 1/4 of a tank in regular unleaded.
Most of you saw the analogy coming in the title of this post...
Today I'm running on empty and it has nothing to do with a petroleum based fuel that runs my car.
Holy Spirit Come.
Creativity, smiles, passion, focus, hope, patience, effectiveness, joy, and the list goes on, are approaching fume like levels.
So I will pull into the pump of God's presence and pray that He fill me.
He will.
Full.

Joel, about that creativity deficit ...
Pull in to CommuniCorps.Org and park and just enjoy yourself for a while!
Got you in my prayers, brother.
You can have the $3.25 out here in Malibu if you'd rather.
