hamsup(?) thoughts

I was reading this in the middle of the sermon today...
so i'll give my commentary in italics heh

Unless the LORD builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the LORD guards the city,
The watchman stays awake in vain.
(yea indeed... i have yet to learn this)
It is vain for you to rise up early,
To sit up late,
(oh dear sounds like what i tend to do)
To eat the bread of sorrows;
(so depressing... and indeed it is from experience)
For so He gives His beloved sleep.
(i need sleep.)

Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
(be fruitful and multiply! that's what sex was made for)
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one’s youth.
(i don't quite understand this... but it feels like it implies we should have children early)
Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;
(bad image of shooting sperm =S)
They shall not be ashamed,
But shall speak with their enemies in the gate.
(go shoo! you can't tear down the house of the Lord!)
~Psalm 127

haha self-amusement. ohwell. ok back to lab report
