I have two interesting challenges on my plate.

The first is an assignment for a local magazine. I was asked to cover their "business of the month" feature. The business is a storage facility. I went there wondering how I was going to make this an interesting article, an article about storage.

Well fortunately for me, the interview went great. There are a variety of interesting ways people use storage space, so I think I can meet challenge #1. I'm used to working on heartwarming stories about kids, but I can do this too.

Challenge #2
Then the youth minister at my church left me a message asking if I'd do the children's sermon on Sunday. I agreed in a message I left for him in a round of phone tag. I just asked if there was a topic he could give me.
Sure.

The topic of the first children's sermon I will be delivering on Sunday will be...
falling in love

I laughed out loud. He obviously doesn't know me very well. I am perhaps the least qualified in that entire congregation to speak on this subject. My "sermon" will be all warnings.
"OK, kids, can you say 'pre-nuptial agreement'?"

But OK, I'll play along. Surely they mean falling in love with God. What's the scripture reference?

Song of Solomon.

I think I've been had.
