Yesterday was great for me. If you know me I love preaching. Yesterday it was an incredible service for me. Seeing a church body care for one another and doing the right things is great. We pounded a family a few weeks ago and one of the things that Faith Baptist Church does is they always read the thank you cards that come in the mail. Honestly its nice knowing you made a difference. The pounding (giving people in need food items and household things and money is what a pounding is) allowed the family to keep their house. How incredible is that!!! We didn’t know that but God used faithful people doing what they can to save someone’s home!!

 But the preaching is a little different here. I’ve heard the pastor for a large part of my life and he preaches a different style than do most Southern Baptist preachers. I call it freelance preaching but honestly he takes a subject and uses related verses from the Old and New Testament to relate his points and show the continuity of the theme throughout the Bible.

Yesterday the message was geared towards storms. And he gave the old adage you are either in a storm, coming out of a storm, or about to enter a storm. But instead of focusing on that He showed how God either gives you power, peace, or His presence to cause you to rise out of that.

Also when you look at the people in the New Testament with ailments how often are they so close to the solution… lame man near the pool of Bethesda, leper near the temple, etc. They are so close to healing but until someone either Jesus or usually Paul presents the relationship to them a change will never take place. No matter how close you are until you meet Jesus you won’t find a solution (look at the man who complimented His answer to the question in the temple by the Pharisees.)

 I need God to call me to a situation. I am praying that I would know what that situation is. I wish that I could come into a Joshua situation without the former leader dying of course. But more than anything I know that when that time comes God will call me to arise in power and follow Him in obedience.

well FedEx wants me to work from 2-11 am!! Worst hours ever but sometimes you have to do what you have to do… but honestly I’m praying and hoping that UPS picks up the pace and offers me a sales rep job.

Speaking of that I talked to someone new from the Brown. Gwen Rawls is the head of the BD department (business development) and she hires people for the sales rep job. She works out of Columbia and I will work in Greenville. Its like Jackson,TN to Memphis basically is the same distance.

She told me that the Greenville market is large enough to need sales people very often and therefore I put in my resume and hopefully something will open up for me.

I know that I have been praying for a general job but honestly, very honestly, this is the job that I want. Please pray specifically that something will open up for me. I know that this blog is full of different topics but I try to be honest and open with my life and I need God to open a door, this door preferably. Please pray hard and continuously and God will work and I will respond.

 Thanks for reading and keeping up with my crazy life. Love you guys and let me know if there is anything that I can do for you.

I have an interview with FedEx on Monday and I was excited because it is going to be a full time job and in the industry that I currently work in with a big company and with the opportunity to move up.

Then I received and email that is as follows:

“Do you think you could start at 2, am that is?”

Needless to say I am extremely dissappointed. It just seems sometimes like nothing can work out can it.

Today I read in Ezekiel about the dry bones that God brought to life.

Either this means that if God can make dry bones live than He can certainly get me a job in SC or I should be an archaeologist…

time will only tell

I just cannot win a fantasy game in one league for nothing but i am undefeated in the other league that I am in. It doesn’t help that LT is underachieving and drew brees is playing like a rookie qb.

It is time to bring out the big guns now. I have been known in my fantasy experience to bring to the table blockbuster deals that will shake up the league. Well now my friends it is time to make it happen. Stay tuned for the news on my continuing adventures as the underdog in my fantasy league.

I worked last night nothing unusual but work is work ya know? But last night i was just completely exhausted. So I decided no school today. I only had one class and told my teacher that my drive is longer than her class so i was going to stay home today.

 2-0 in fantasy football last week. I finally won in the league that I am commissioner in by beating the very powerful David Jacks team.

This week, Todd Lollis, and he probably won’t check his team because he is at Catalyst which means victory number two.

Looking forward to my weekend on Halo 3, homework, and football. Maybe some more fun with the David

If you have ideas for a video or something fun we should do this weekend leave me a comment.
