Rhythms

....almost a month into this new year and decade and I am needing to find my rhythm. How to get it all off the ground will have to include massive underpinnings of the enabling power of God. One of my favorite truths from John 15 includes Jesus telling His disciples (and us) that without Him we can do nothing. Without Christ -we will either fail miserably or succeed even more miserably.

So, in my own squirrelly fashion-I embrace the unknown and trust God. I should strive with God's help to make certain to not allow any vestiges of my own efforts to surface when "going at" looking for my rhythms-it would be a dichotomous approach that would end with a forlorn venture slowly flowing out the door as it were over-against a robust valiant fortified resolve.



...maybe I'll start by doing a few more sit-ups, or go walking on the treadmill....

Seriously...

One thing I would like to report is my opportunities to preach and minister in the community which my family and I live in. God has opened a door of utterance and I am thankful for the weekly privilege of doing my part to make Him famous in the world. He does not need me to do this but chooses to allow me to speak of Him.

I pray for wisdom as I share His word at Central Baptist Church-they deserve to hear from God

back in class

...today I start in my final semester at Liberty University. I have only electives to complete the required 120 credit hours for my Bachelors degree in Religion with a specialization in Counseling. It has been a journey fraught with all sorts of challenges. For anyone reading this, encourage those young people who God brings into your life to get their college out of the way early!

"Just do it....then talk!"

When it comes to new years resolutions, I think this year I'll just go ahead and work at implementing those changes that I know I need to make and then talk about it. In the past, I would blab and go-on about my resolutions and then suffer the embarrassment of explaining why I had failed to continue.

So this year I will stay quiet for a while and I will "Just do my resolution stuff....and then talk about it"
