Decision

I am soooooooooo trying to think before I (re)act. I am 38 years old and you think I would know that, LOL.

For example. A driver cuts me off - I will cuss him (in Jesus name) kidding...

If I am stressed I tend to over react to the ones I love the most and put on that smile to those who I simply am trying to be nice to.

Its a decision that should NOT be mine on how to answer a question, react to a situation, etc... It is, or should be the leading of the Holy Spirit.

I mean, even jesus said that he did not speak unless the Father (YHWH, God, Daddy, Abba, The man upstairs) told him what to say and when to say it.

I decide that I need to decide that my desisions effect more than me. I decide that I will NOT be stingy and self centered. And, that is tough to do

38 years of practice, wow God is graceful isnt He? Just a thought.....

REMEMBER

i WAS PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND HEARD THE DJ ON THE RADIO TALK WITH A VERY LOW AND SAD VOICE.

A PLANE HAS HIT THE ONE OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTER IN NYC.

ANOTHER PLANE HIT THE PENTAGON.

ANOTHER PLANE CRASHES

A SECOND PLANE HAS HIT THE OTHER TRADE CENTER.

IT WAS AN WEIRD FEELING.

IT SEEMED SO QUIET OUTSIDE.

MY WIFE LEFT HER CLASS AND WENT AND GOT OUR BOYS FROM SCHOOL.

I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT HAD HAPPENED.

HERE WE ARE 7 YEARS LATER AND OVER 80% OF AMERICA DO NOT FEEL LIKE IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN!

WOW

TELL THE LOVED ONES THAT

THE PEOPLE THAT WERE JUMPING OUT OF THE BURNING BUILDING.

WE FORGET.

WE THINK WE ARE STILL STRONG

WE ARE COCKY

ARROGANT

IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN

WE ARE VENERABLE

IN AN ELECTION YEAR

LIFE GOES ON

BILLS TO PAY

PLACES TO GO

THINGS TO DO

GOALS TO ACCOMPLISH

A CAR TO CLEAN

WHAT WAS I WRITING ABOUT?......

OH YEA, I ALMOST FORGOT......

REMEMBER

JUST A THOUGHT.....

weekly mind dump

Labor Day, I did NOT labor!

Tuesday, was Monday

Brady preached a life changing message Sunday!

Hurricane Gustov hits the gulf

Some of Gustov set on Arkansas for 2 days

Power out for 2 days at home

Lost my temper this past week, I twittered about it in short

Brady and i dug trench for very poor drainage at the CPC campus

I love my wife

I love my kids

I drive about 700 miles a week!

I have made it to the gym at 4:30 am this week!

I have a lot to be celebrating

I am under stress, yet it is stress that forms us in the hands of the Holy Spirit

I am reading "Wild Goose Chase" for the second time

Laundrey is getting piled up at home, thankful to have stuff to ware

Life is, life and I desire to live it differently everyday so that i will not presume everyday is the same. i can's stand boring! i need adventure. I need a box to hide in at times, but after I come out of the box I will burn it.

Just a thought

Connection

I just had the chance to meet Robert Lewis (founder of Fellowship Bible Church in Little Rock). Wow what an incredible leader! He still travels for mens fraternity and is getting ready to go to hondorus and train 1500 pastors!!!!

Wow what an incredible connection to make!

When I talk to dudes like that it makes me hyper! Why? because I want (and am) to do something to make a difference in this world!

I dont like politics, but I love God connections!

I have had the chance to make several in the last couple of months. I am amazed that God would think of us enough to have us connect with people to be able to connect to others!

Even as I am setting here in a coffee shop I just invited a total stranger to CPC, he and his girlfriend are students in pharmecy school.

It is so, so, so important to connect with people. Jesus loves people.

"Look at the fields" those are four very challanging words that should ring in our ears!

Connect! Just a thought.....
