Ministers

Some of the best student ministry I have ever seen has been done by those who do it for free. It is not the youth pastor with all the degrees or the youth guru at a conference. The best are those who come faithfully to the functions and invest their lives and time into teenagers. Thank God for you sunday school teachers, D-leaders, volunteers, cooks, etc..

thanks, "mom" "Old School" jordan, jake, Justin, Matt and Melissa, beth, "Larbee"Michelle, Scott, Greg, Shannon, Brandi, alicia, bill, and....all of you from the past, present and future thank you so much...

I love you guys with all my heart and I am constantly learning from y'all.....

thanks

Seek first.........

I am getting ready to start a series through the book of Matthew. In preparing for this series it never ceases to amaze me how much God has to say in His word.

In Matthew 6 we find Jesus in the middle of His sermon on the mount and he is speaking volumes to us. He tells us to study the birds and the flowers. He asks if these creatures seem to worry or toil. Of course not, they do what God created them to do, and that is Glorify HIM!! Our father knows our needs and He will take care of them. Jesus says...."seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things (our needs) will be added unto us".

Just like the birds and the flowers our Job is to glorify God. We are to enjoy him and take joy in Him. This makes him look good!!!

Pray for me as prepare the messages.

A White Advent

Hey guys well we have received a blessing from God here in WNC. HEAVY HEAVY SNOW....alot of heavy SNOW.. here is a picture of Emma suiting up...very cute

The second picture was taken during friday when the snow began. After the storm only one rail on that same fence was able to be seen. It still looks like Narnia at my house. On Cold Mountain we had around 24". So as long as the rain does not take it all away from the ground....we will have a White Advent.

Advent!?!

It was free love that Brought our savior from the throne of Glory into the realm of sinful man. Are we to forget the importance of the Savior's birth and celebrate the Gifts under the tree? Heaven forbid. Let us be reminded each day of the essential nature of the Gift of God. It took the precious blood of Christ to save the vilest sinner.

SO why should we call it advent? Because advent means to come....it is the celebration of the Coming of Christ.........yet we wait as well. Brothers and sisters let us celebrate with vigor the HOPE that came to man in the form of a little baby. And celebrate the coming KING of KINGS on the WHITE STEAD. SOLI DEO GLORIA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Advent!

Turkey and other thoughts.....

Well after three thanksgiving meals....yes three....I am ready for a cheeseburger and some hot wings! The thought of turkey and dressing is just not as appealing as it was last week. Spending time with family was awesome though! Tuscola advanced to round 4 in the play offs!!! So the boys have another battle Friday night. Beth, Emma Grace, and Macy Willow are all great. I am so blessed to have the family that God has given me!!!

Thank God for all the blessings of life!

The Princess Posse!

Well all who follow me..

We have had our new bundle of Joy. Included in the "bundle" is restless nights and dirty diapers....instant love, snuggling on the couch, moments that will only happen once. On of the Greatest things about being a dad is you voice. When I speak my girls automatically hear me and search for me in the room. This is especially seen in Macy. When I speak she will strain her neck to find me.....I am so undeserving of the love my family gives me......

This reminds me of how we should be with our heavenly father. We should seek him out and hear his voice when speaks.

Check out Ephesians 5 on this issue.....

mom and baby are ready to come home
....beth wants pasta haha see yall soon
