A Forgotten Blog!

It's amazing how we can seem to get away from things at times. Take my blog for instance. It's been almost a month since I've posted. Even though I know I have a blog and have posted almost 300 times since I began... I haven't thought much about it over this past few weeks.

If we are not careful our walk with God can become the same way. We may have 'posted' many conversations over the years, but have you 'posted' one today? Have we taken the time to hear from His Word and communicate with Him on some level. Don't let God become a blog forgotten. Don't let him become a hobby that no longer draws your interest. Communicate! Protect the relationship you have with your God. Draw close to Him and watch Him draw close to you!

Jesus loves us and desires our company. Let us never forget that fact... so start 'typing'!

Trust God!

Wow... where has the time gone? You blink your eyes and the calendar is gone.

I'm reminded today... though the times change... God does not! He is the same yesterday, today and forever. We can put our assurance in an unchanging God that He will always be there for us and He will never forsake us. What have you put your trust in? Or, should I ask... who?

The Holidays Are Here!

I hope everyone had a great Thankgiving with friends and family.

I took my family to my parent's house for Thanksgiving. It was good to see my brothers and the rest of my family. Mom put on a spread. I probably committed the sin of gluttony today. If I didn't, I came close. After lunch, Jenny and I, along with my kids, went to the church and decorated for Christmas. It was nice spending the day with them enjoying the holidays. The church looks great... thanks to my wife and her decorating skills.

The holidays are shaping up to be great. Looking forward to Christmas!

2nd Place

I entered a corn hole tournament at First Baptist Church in Portland with friend Paul Read last night. There were 32 teams and we finished 2nd! I would like to thank Greg McCoy (FBC's pastor) for hosting the event. It was a great night of competition. There is nothing like a good game of corn hole!

Light The Night Update

It was an awesome night. Thanks to Pastor Ty and Lisa Crowder for hosting such a great evening. We don't have an exact count of tonight's attendance, but my guess would be over 150 guests (adults and kids) plus our workers and their families. Our volunteers were amazing. Thank you for giving your night to ministering to the kids and families of our community. Only time will tell what was accomplished.

Coming Soon!

I got some amazing news today. I can't share it right now... but hopefully in the near future. Need your prayers in the meantime! Thanks.

Final Words at LFF!

Tonight was good! I really enjoyed hanging out with my church family and sharing the Word of God! I preached a message called, "Final Words." We finished up our walk through the book of 2 Timothy. Chapter four lets us hear some of Paul's final words to Timothy, as well as to the church. It's true... the preacher gets the message before the church does! I was challenged by Paul's words. If you didn't get a chance to be there tonight... read 2 Timothy 4. It will cause you to live up, not down!

Lazy Saturday!

This has been an awesome Saturday! When the week has been busy... it's nice to slow down even if it is for a day. Jenny and I have not left the house. We have been hanging out with the kids and enjoying each other's company. Days like this you cherish. Parents... spend time with your kids. Give them a day! You won't regret it!

A Day At Home!

Today has been a good day! This is the first full day that I have been home in several weeks. It was nice to be at the house. I spent the day working on my honey-do list. My youngest daughter, Teagan, stayed home with me while Jenny went to work and the other three girls were at school. She helped me do several of my projects. We picked up the house, put supper in the crockpot, mowed the yard and then we tackled trimming the hedges around the front of the house. I was on the trimmer and she was on the rake. It was awesome to see a four year old rake the entire flower bed out by herself and have fun doing it. I thought for sure she would give up after a few minutes and go ride her bike, but not her. She stayed with me until we bagged the last of the trimmings. She was focused! I was blessed to have such a wonderful helper today. Yes... this has been a good day! You cannot beat family! There is nothing like it!
