Fun day

Today is a fun day and I will share why only after you watch the video.

The cool thing is this video got into the hands of the 700 club who is coming today to do the story.  The group that I lead gets to hang out and be a part of the video shoot.  Rachel would love to go to churches to share the story in person, so if you would like to get in contact with her, you can let me know.  She is a well spoken lady with her PH. D.  in psychology.

It will be a fun day!  Let me know your thoughts.

Life at warp speed

I feel like life is moving at warp speed as some points and then it is to a stand still. 

As I search for a Senior Pastor position and have deadline looming over me it is crazy.  If you know of any positions open, please let me know.

 Put my house on the market today and need your prayers for this because I need to get more than I paid for it a year ago.   My wife is having a hard time with this aspect of everything so please pray for her.

Life has really brought about strange things recently but God is faithful. 

Thanks for your prayers.

Quotes

Just a few of my current favorite non- bible quotes:

Be a student, not a critic – Jim Collins

No what, but who – Jim Collins

Here is to the crasy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the trouble makers.  The round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently.  They are not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo.  you can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.  About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them, because they change thngs, they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.  Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do. – Apple computers

Never let your memories be greater than your dreams – Doug Ivester

I love quotes and have a collection of a couple hundred that I love.  Strange thing to collect but God has used them in my life.

Rocking my World in a Good way…

God has been rocking my world in a good way over the past few days as I read in Colossians.  I love the word of God.  Tough times are all around but in the midst of all of it I have found a sense God that I have not had in a while.  I covet your prayers and thank you for them.  Keep praying that God will show my family his grace and that He will guide me with his wisdom and understanding. 

Colossians 3:15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

This is speaking to me – may it speak to you.

What in the Word is rocking your world?

Wrestling with Emotion

Going through the things I am going through now has really caused me to have to wrestle with emotions.  I am find myself having moments of fear, moments of excitimentment, moments of sadness, and moments of joy.  It is a crazy merry-go- round that I am on here.  I have had more intimate conversations with God through it all.  I have found comfort in the Word as well as in talking with some family, but still it is always there (it being an emotion) and sometimes I just want a break from it but it does not come.  I want to not be consumed by thoughts of what will happen and where I will be but I am and I continue to take it back to God.  All I know to do is to take it back to God. 

What do you do when you are wrestling with emotion?
