One idea too many (should have quit while ahead)
So today I was visiting a friend at her work. I was walking through the medical center looking at the different doctors names on each do when I noticed that my I had the brilliant idea to go visit my pediatrician. was still working in the same office that she has worked in for the last 30 plus years. I hatched the brilliant idea to stop in and say hi (without wondering if anyone else ever goes and visits their pediatrician). I walk in to the office and start having flash backs to every other time that i have been there as a kid. Continue Reading…
It is well and good to follow God
My teaching time on sunday went well. I was nervous about teaching again because I have not taught or lead a Bible study in a long time. I lost confidence in my abilities that God had given me. I spoke way to fast and started to lose focus during the first 10 min of the sunday school. I finally relaxed and all of my anxiety went away. I imparted that passion and love that God gave me during my preparation. Thank you for your prayers they were used for a greater purpose than I will ever know here on earth.
11 hours until then is now
Well in about 11 hours all of my excitement will come to a climax when I am able to teach sunday school. I am so very passionate about sharing God’s amazing love and provision to others. I think my greatest fear is that I would not impart all of God and none of me in what I present. I know that my excitement level has been growing steadily over the last week. I am to a point where I find it very hard to sleep. Continue Reading…
A prepared existence within a goldfish bowl is all I need
It is a wonderful feeling to know that I have fully prepared for teaching on sunday. I am almost certain that I have gone to the total extreme in preparation, but in studying the Bible I believe that there is never a point at which you can do too much. At this moment I feel like the I am living out the Joy Electric song “Sugar Rush”. I am feeling like I have just consume some drug. It is kind of funny.
On another note I am almost to the one year mark since my life hit rock bottom. Continue Reading…
Ecstatically fantabulous night with Titus
I have to say that tonight was the best night I have had in a coffee shop ever! You might wonder who I was with, what I was drinking, and if she was single. Fortunately or unfortunately this evening didn’t involve anyone of the female persuasion. I was alone drinking mocha’s while jamming to music on my ipod at Caribou Coffee. The most exciting part of my 5 1/2 hours at the coffee shop was spent studying my Bible! I am so excited about all that God has shown me. Continue Reading…
Benchmark for life contained in a boiling pot of water and some noodles
Today I have crossed a new benchmark in life. I boiled water and cooked some noodles. Now this may not seem like that big of a deal but that pot of water is the first time I have been able to stand and cook in over 2 years. It has been a long road to get here. I was able to help do the dishes yesterday also! I would have to say that my recovery is going great! It is nice to feel like I am 7 foot tall. There are many doctors and nurses who are shocked when they see me stand up and I tower over them.
I pray that you will find encouragement knowing that God is active in this world. God is not sitting idle as we travel through this world. I have seen God over these last years work in many great and mighty ways. It is as John states that Jesus did many other things then were written in the Bible. Continue Reading…
