Desiring ‘Faith Like Potatoes’
Each and every day God tests my faith. In fact, the more I get to know Him, the more I think He tests it. Day by day as I’ve drawn nearer to Him, I sometimes have to look back and think if I’m really giving it my all in this relationship with Him. It’s like [...]
So Long, 2009.
I’m really not quite sure where I’m headed with this post, and I need to keep it brief as we’re headed onto our traditional New Year’s Eve plans in a couple of hours. Lindsey’s currently in the kitchen making fruit salsa chips which are amazing, and I am here just buying some time until I [...]
I Thank My God Every Time I Remember You.
I know, I know, I’m a little bit late to be talking about Thanksgiving and things that we can be thankful about. I’m sure that we’ve all gotten our fill of turkey and pumpkin pie and have packed up the fall decorations and have trimmed the Christmas tree already. But, I would like to go [...]
I will move ahead, bold and confident.
As Fall has come, and the summer has passed there has been a lot of interesting changes in our daily Christian walk. Lindsey and I have been very busy with our jobs lately and for awhile it felt like we were getting nothing done for our adoption. The first important steps have been completed for [...]
Positive Thoughts Continued.
Though I won’t share the entire context here on this blog, Lindsey did receive a reply back from 104.9 the River over the weekend in regards to this email she sent out. The reply didn’t come from David Emerson, but from Todd Stach, the program director of the station. In a nutshell, Todd explains that [...]
Here’s our River Positive Thought..
On 104.9 The River you will hear “Positive Thoughts” daily which include quotes from listeners like “Share a fact and you touch a mind. Share a story and you touch a soul.” or “love is a verb, and so is forgiveness”. Some of which make little sense or have no practical Truth in them. Here’s [...]
Put your shoes on and make yourself uncomfortable.
I came to the realization the other day that my greatest sin of all is not the most obvious. It’s not so much what I do, but lack thereof. This is called sin of omission. I probably have felt more guilt, sorrow, and anger at myself at this type of sin than the more obvious [...]
Rid me of myself, I belong to You.
What a trying week this has been. But I promise that it hasn’t been all bad. A lot of good is happening in our lives right now. I probably got a little carried away when I twittered that I was at a breaking point. In fact, in all actuality, nothing but good is surfacing. It’s [...]
You’re up to something bigger than me.
A few days ago I celebrated my 26th birthday. Twenty six is not a huge milestone in some respects, but it was my first birthday as a married man. Overall the birthday went well. I selfishly decided not to tell anybody at work as I don’t enjoy all the pomp and circumstance that comes with [...]
If He Called, Would You Listen?
I’m trying to understand today why sometimes it is hard for myself to make certain decisions in my life that I know are right (even ones I think I’m being called to), yet I choose to make no decision at all. Nothing positive ever comes out of my non-action. I just sit around wondering what [...]
