The First Night

Well I made it through the first night of Project Fill "it" Up, and I have learned one valuable lesson. DO NOT take high school aged boys to Starbucks at 9pm if you want to go to bed before midnight. We went for our outside game last night, and a thunderstorm rolled in so my idea was to go hang at Starbucks, great idea, wrong time. We then rushed home to watch the original Star Wars Episode 4. We have been through 2 services so far, and things are going great. Can't wait to see what God has in store for us later on tonight and tomorrow!!!!!

Trying to get better....

I know it has been almost 2 weeks since my last post, and man have things gotten crazy. 2 weeks ago when I went to Elevation church, I had thought that it was the most physically, spiritually, emotionally trying week I had ever experienced. I was trying to sell my house, and the home inspector the buyers had hired came back with some bogus stuff, to which I had to hire a certified engineer to refute. (it amazes me how much stock people place into someone who goes to take a one day class and a test to get certified to inspect homes). Never the less, my guy came through and we close on the deal in 2 days. Also that week I got sick, and without going into too much detail, I was selling Buick's to Ralph on the way home from Elevation. On top of all that I am trying to figure out the direction God is leading me into, and Satan is really on my back.

That was probably one of the worst weeks of my life, until this week. Briefly, moving sucks and we are addressing some family issues, and I need much prayer. I know God's word says that He will never allow Satan to put anything on us we can't handle through the power of the Holy Spirit, but man is it tough. On a positive note though, our youth mini-camp, starts tomorrow, and I am excited about what God is gonna do there, and I am gonna get to preach the Friday night message. Haven't got to do that in several months (over 6) and God has given me a great message on His Guidance. I love to preach, and teach, and am really excited about this opportunity. Well anyways if you are reading this, just keep me and my family in your prayers as we work this crap out. PEACE!!

HMMMMM..... I wonder?

I think I am gonna try a series. This is my first stab at it, and since I am relatively still a blogging baby, we will see how it goes.



OK, so I have always had all these questions for God, and I know one day they will all be answered, but this one kinda hit me today. I know we all have people in our lives that just annoy the crap out of us. I am no different, and it always seems to be someone I work with. I mean the type of person who, no matter what they say or do, they just always seem to be on your last freakin nerve. Well I wonder if God ever feels that way about us, I mean we always seem to go to Him with our petty problems, constantly nagging, and just won't shut-up about what we want, or what we need. I know God loves us, and desires to hear from us, but I wonder if He ever just gets annoyed with us to the point He just wants to scream SHUT UP!!!!! HMMMMM.....I wonder?

The WORLD'S WORST BLOGGER!!!!!

I have to have the title for being the world's worst blogger. No excuses, but life has been freakin crazy right now. For those who don't know, I have had my house on the market since last September, and finally signed a contract on it last Wednesday. Trying to close the deal, negotiating offers, trying to get ready to move in with the in-laws, packing (all done by my lovely wife, Tracy, so far), talking to builders, talking to the power company, TALKING..TALKING..TALKING, it is all very frustrating. So , if my 2 readers will be patient, I will try to do better in the future. I got alot on my mind right now so get ready for multiple posts.
