Peace Be With You

Welcome to my blog! My name is Rev. David Lindenberg. I am a pastor at Peace Lutheran Church (LCMS) in Rapid City, South Dakota. "O Taste and See That the Lord is Good" is from Psalm 34:8, and it describes several of my favorite things, which this blog will be about. Taste: I am a "foodie," and I love to cook, so from time to time there will be some of my favorite recipes, or cooking tips on here. SEE: I love art, drawing, and am currently taking some art instruction, and learning how to paint as well, so there will also be some things about art and painting in my blog. I also love history, which has nothing to do with the title, but it a real interest of mine. But most of all, I love my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and so most of my blogging will be about matters of faith, and some daily devotional writings. I hope that you enjoy "Tasting and Seeing That the Lord IS Good!" Happy reading!

we are experiencing technical difficulties

Sorry everyone.  I am currently on vacation and am experiencing various technical difficulties.  I had fully intended to blog while on vacation, especially since I didn't do it all last week due to being so swamped with work just to be able to take a vacation.  It's exhausting just thinking about it. 
I think the Lord is trying to get me to SLOW WAY DOWN.  Last night when my mother in law was doing her planning each day out thing, I just said, would you be too disappointed if what I wanted to do on this vacation was nothing.
Sometimes we just have to re-charge our batteries.  For me, sometimes that means doing next to nothing.  Fun?  No not really.  But usually I am wearing so many hats that I am not sure if I even have the right one on.  It is nice to go "hat-less" every once in a while.  I guess now is that time.  Besides, it is not like I am actually doing nothing.  I just don't feel like doing the whole go go go  thing on this vacation.  I know, I probably sound BORING!  But as I told my m-i-l, sometimes, boring is good...boring would be nice for a change.
Perhaps God is telling you to slow down today.  Take a few moments, an hour, or all day.  REST!  PRAY!  REFLECT!  READ!  ENJOY!  Perhaps the technical difficulties were a blessing after all!
Thanks for reading and God Bless!
