img_8205While in Washington D.C. on a business trip, I saw this  and it was just something that moved me. As I was siting in the park waiting for my hotel shuttle, I overheard a little boy wanting to play catch with his dad. I hear the dad agree and soon afterwards I hear the sound of a football traveling in the air. I look up and my jaw dropped when I saw the”dad” who was throwing the ball. It was an old man around his late 50’s and he was wearing suit. Now mind you, this wasn’t a cheap suit you can get for for $100.00. This was a high quality suit. It warmed my heart to see a dad take time out of his busy schedule to put a smile on his sons face. I guarantee that it will be dry-cleaned by the end of the week.  What an example of taking time for the important things in life.

My faith and my personal struggle. 

From starting my day with watching miracles from heaven to ending it with linsanity, I now know I need completely faith and submission to the lord.
I have been struggling the past month with what God wants me to do. I prayed for an opportunity and I received it. Now the opportunity just feels more like a burden than a blessing. At times, I ask “why would the lord bless me with something like this?” Or “this can’t be that bad because it’s from God.”  I was down and though it’s hard for me to admit, I was resentful. Faith in good times and faith in bad times…that’s what I am telling myself to get me thru this.
Prayers would be appreciated. 

Watching The Lord Bless Your Kids

This week has been an absolute whirlwind.  My 8 year old daughter has started playing golf and she absolutely loves it.  I love seeing the joy in her face as she plays.  All these years i have been envious of my friends taking their sons to baseball, football, basketball practices and now i have been given the opportunity to share in those moments.  I always wanted to say “good job” after a game as I carry their equipment; now i get that chance.  Thank you lord for this.  It’s the little things that show that you love me.

My God Fights My Battles..Our God Is An Awesome God!

Lately, I have been attacked a lot spiritually.  Nothing bad or drastic, just a bunch of small events that are piling up on top of each other.  The first few were easy to brush up but the last couple have started me along a mindset of being negative.  It’s days like this that i need to take my eyes off what is giving me the problems and focus my eyes on the Lord.  Prayer is more than just a wish list of wants and needs.  Prayer is my opportunity to talk to my father and plead my case.  It is a great relief to know that i have the God of Justice on my side.

The lyrics of the song “Awesome God” says it all…

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom power and love
Our God is an awesome God

Speaking the of song Awesome God, the version from R-Swift is my favorite.  I first heard this song when UFC lightweight Benson Henderson walked out to the octagon with this song blasting.  I admire Benson for being at the top of his profession and not ashamed to wear his faith on his sleeve.  like our motto says…WHY BE AN UNDERCOVER CHRISTIAN!!!
