Engaged!

Yep, a long time since I updated.  The price you pay for working lots and moving to a different part of the world! 

I've found my darlin that I want to spend the rest of my days with.  She can be found below :)

30th Birthday and my girl is awesome

So after 30 years of living, my birthday summed up pretty well.

1. Got to sleep in until about 11AM :)

2. Picked my girlfriend Abby up from work at 12 because she had a day planned out for me.

3. Went to the airport where there is a Mexican restaurant. Had a margarita.

4. During the time there, she handed me a pamphlet of a plane and said it was a clue.

5. We rode in a bi-plane 20 minutes later! It was amazing. The video below sums up how the day went down.

P.S. It also include a manicure and pedicure, don't hate :)

I cannot wait for my IMAC to get here!

Gospel

Have you ever been reading something online and right before you are done reading, browsing, shopping, etc, the internet connection dies and you can't get to anything? Do you know that feeling that you have? You just want it to connect right back so you can finish what you are doing. Finish your purchase on gap.com, finish your CNN fix for the day...

I realized tonight that I didn't feel that way about reading the Bible. I was reading Ephesians 6 on my iphone and the application died, I couldn't bring it back. I realized that the feelings I have for something as trivial as internet suffering were nothing in comparison for the longing I should have for the Word and the Gospel.

This may sound stupid, but I think in our culture today, my prayer is that I will want Jesus more than google.

And here is what I would have missed out on:

Ephesians 6:

¹⁰Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. ¹¹Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. ¹²For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.¹³Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. ¹⁴Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, ¹⁵and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. ¹⁶In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. ¹⁷Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. ¹⁸And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

¹⁹Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, ²⁰for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.

Final Greetings

²¹Tychicus, the dear brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you everything, so that you also may know how I am and what I am doing. ²²I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage you.

²³Peace to the brothers, and love with faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. ²⁴Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.

Don't be greedy

It's interesting that Jesus spends a lot of time in the New Testament talking about money. He talks about money more than Hell. I found this news story today and it hurts to even see. This pastor in the video has been associated with a church that I went to years ago, and it makes me wonder when that church too will go down this path, or possibly may already be down it. The Church should be above reproach, if there is something the outside world sees as wrong, we should be the first to make it right. The video is from www.alittleleaven.com and the link is here.
