I must admit that the ordination stuff is a little "distracting" - in a good way. My mind keeps wanting to drift away from studies and toward ordination prep. The truth is that for the moment, there's not a lot of "prep" for me to do. At the moment, it's a matter of waiting for meetings, waiting for announcements about curacies, and trying to be patient.
Have you ever noticed that when someone says "Don't look down, the first thing you do is ... look down". Hearing "Be patient!" can be like that too, sometimes.
