Of my flesh, of my heart........

It has been a while since the last post. I don't know why but at times I have started stuff and felt all self-conscious about what I was writing or what I wasn't writing. I know I am not so important as to worry about people might think or not about my life. So I am going to have to just get back to writing about what is/has been going on in my life. Almost a year has past since Sarah and I have moved from texas to the southeast. A lot has changed some for the good, some maybe not so good. There has been weddings, funerals, and babies being born. It is so easy to forget what is important in the "grown-up" world of jobs, obligations, priorities, ect. People are what matters to me the most. I would like to believe that I hold to that enough to show it by staying in touch with friends and family but I do not. God has blessed me with so many people that I consider friends. He has blessed me with an amazing woman for my bride. He has allowed me to still be able to be a small part in others journeys. I pray that as this new year approaches that I will stay in contact/involved in peoples lives on a more consistent, intimate and honest basis.

grace be upon you.......

Songs sound much sadder........

One of my favorite things in life is music. I tend to gravitate towards guitar-oriented music in the rock genre. But as I've grown older I have learned to appreciate other styles as well. A friend mentioned the other week a cool internet radio station called pandora. Since then it has been an exciting experience looking for different styles,songs,artists. I encourage anybody who really appreciates music to check it out. www.pandora.com/




play it loud and often!!

SoulShine...................

I was reminded today how powerful music can be. Sometimes a song can express what is in my soul when nothing else can. May God save us from ourselves............

grace to all................

When the sun sleeps............

Easter sunday 2010-Today has caused me to remember, to try to understand what is so powerful about this holiday in comparison to any other at this period of my life.

Easter is when most christians remember the resurrection of our saviour Jesus Christ. It has brought to my mind the beautiful reality of new beginnings, hope, and life. All in my life good and bad was never not part of God's ongoing plan. He is not finished and I'm grateful for His constant grace and forgiveness.

This easter sunday has been a great one to see spring in the sunshine and everything blooming. Two weeks ago as I was driving to work, it was snowing most of the way. I love the wintertime and especially the way everything looks covered in snow, but I am grateful to be in a place where spring is so pronounced. I know that with Jesus Christ my life would be nothing but a long, cold winter. He brings springtime with new growth and renewed desires to live by his spirit and truth and not my own. It was fitting that in church today the sermon was on grace. That is what I feel and realize as everything is changing around me.

The latter part of this January, found Sarah and I starting a new season in our lives as we moved back to the southeast. Back in the fall of 2003, I never though I would ever move back to the area I loved so much. I sure did not think I would have a beautiful wife to move back with to the area. So again a new start has begun. We have been so blessed to have a place to live close to family and friends. Only God knows what the future holds for us, but one thing that comforts me is that in every season of my life He has been with me and will continue to be.

I pray and hope as this day will soon be just another day in the routine of life, that we will not be lost on its significance and promise. May God's grace fall upon you............
