Hello 2009

What will happen this year? Lord only knows...literally! I hope it will be a good year. However, one thing I learned from last year is that good things and bad things will happen. The measure of me is determined by how I handle these events. Will I turn to God, or sulk? Will I love those around me with a fierceness that the Lord requires? Wow....I sure hope so.

Live life full speed! Listen to God!

Good-by 2008

This year will go down in my life as one of the best, and also as one of the worst. God decided again to see how much I really trust him, and how deep my faith is. He gave me a new daughter, that adores me from the time she wakes until sleep closes her eyes each night. He allowed me the foresight to turn down coaching opportunities in lieu of spending more time with my son, my daughter, and my wife. Then he decided he wanted my son back in heaven with him, and so, on November 11th my son returned to his heavenly father. God is good!

So now 2008 is gone, and along with it another year of my life. However, the wonderful thing about a year passing is that a new one has begun. God is giving me a chance to right the wrongs of the past year and and grow into a more mature christian! God is good!
