The world I live in has meaing because the Lord dwells in me.  I do not put myself out their as the perfect Christian but rather try to do my best.  I realize that i am a human and it is in my nature to sin.  Through the good days and bad, I know that the one constant is my savior.  I love the comedic angle of Duck Dynasty and how their faith is intertwined in the show as well.

10 Apps That Will Help Strengthen You Christian Faith – DAY ONE

Remember the days of writing in a Prayer Journal?  You would write down all your prayer requests, concerns and fears, maybe even glue some pictures of items you are dreaming of owning.  The idea of having a prayer journal was great but the problem was keeping up with it.  Their would always be a moment when you would get lazy to write in it.  Even if you were determined to push along and continue the journal with some longevity, you would never be able to backtrack and read what you wrote in the past.  It would get overwhelming.

DAY ONE brings the journal writing to the 21st century.  With Day ONE you can arrange all your journal entires by subject, date, tags, and even by geographical location.  All entries are automatically stamped with the correct time, date, and GPS location for detailed journal writing.  By creating various tags you can further organize your journal to your liking.  For those who are forgetful, DAY ONE can even send notifications to your phone to remind you to start writing. DAY ONE uses the iCloud system to seamlessly sync your entries to all your iOS devices.  You can type on your Mac and continue right were you left off on your iPhone or iPad (iPod as well for those who still have these) which makes your journal ready at your finger tips at all times. You must download and install both the mobile app and the mac app of DAY ONE to use this feature.

I use DAY ONE to write down my walk with God.  Its my electronic diary.  I use it not only to write down the blessings I have received from above but also write down my concerns and fears.  I love writing in my journal when the Lord blesses me in little ways.  I may write a quick journal entry or attach a picture of what just happened.  We tend to forget the little things that the Lord does for us and by me writing in my DAY ONE journal, I can see (read) all that the good Lord has done. Lately, I have been using DAY ONE to record my walk as i am now use the Resolution Decree from the movie Courageous.

An ode to Tattnall Square Academy in Macon, GA

Tattnall Square Academy

As a Christian, we live in a society where prayer and God is being taken out of our children schools. Yes, my wife and I decided on private school rather than public school because of the safety concerns, more in-tuned teachers, and the extra-curricular actives. But more importantly, we choose private school so my child will have the freedom of religion. In the 3 years that our child (Nyah) has attended Tattnall, she has made friends, experienced those positive moments, and has gotten so close to the lord. She is ready to take the next step on Guam/Philippines and its all because you, TATTNALL SQUARE ACADEMY. There is no way our family can ever thank you enough. Even though we now have an ocean between us, you can count on our family to help further the goals of Tattnall. We never know where The Lord will send us. For all we know, the kids will spend their high school days back at Tattnall.

Growing up, I have fond memories of growing up in a school where Religion was a huge part of the curriculum. I thank you Tattnall for laying the foundation for my child.

Praise the lord always!

Next stop is Harvest Christian Academy

Nightly prayer 5/19/13

Praise The Lord who always provides!

As we travel back to Tokyo and Atlanta, I thank you for making this trip a success. We were able to secure the safety, comfort, and happiness of our kids while we follow your will and return to Guam/Manila. I pray for continued strength in not letting the rumors, gossip and ill will of others take away from the blessings you have shown me. You are a faithful God and have afforded me opportunities I do not deserve! I do not know why i was chosen but i am eternally grateful that i am yours.

As the time approaches and people begin to talk, I am getting more nervous. I must stop and ask myself:

Why do I care what you think?

From Moses to Noah, Abraham to Job; the bible is full role models who were blessed by God and did not listen to conventional wisdom. I am no where near these men but I can still try to act like them!

I do not mean for this to come off as arrogant and I certainly do not call myself self righteous. I am just in a point in my life where I no longer care about the opinions of others. No longer will I care about what others say. I am not here to please you. I am here to please my GOD.

In Jesus name I pray, amen
