Blessings


Tonight was a great night. We went over to the Elartons, had dinner, played some cards, watched some old home movies. It was alot of fun. I laughed so much tonight. Thanks Nate and Wendy for having us. As I'm getting older (not old) I am learning to appreciate some of the more important things in life. My family, my friends, and how blessed I really am. Sometimes it takes a good laugh to remind us of the blessings we have all around us. Alot of Christians believe God blesses with money or material things, but really who would want that over the blessing of good company. As you read this short blog stop and think, and be thankful. God is so good to us. Take a minute or two to think of the blessings he has placed in your life. Than take a second to thank him. He really is a good God.

Tuesday came and gone.

Now, I know that I did not blog on Tuesday as I promised, and anonymous was sure to comment on that. But I failed to be a man of my word. Which brings up a great topic to think about. How often do we say we will do something and never do it? How often do we promise never to do something but do anyway? We as people have a hard time doing what we say. And we throw the word "promise" around as if it were nothing. There was a time when your word was enough to be a legal bond. After all your word is all you have.

Jesus says in the Bible "let your yes be yes and your no be no". And what an example he set for us. Everything he said he would
do, he did. And he never did anything he said he wouldn't. God calls us to live the same kind of life. An honest one. Where we let are word be who we are. It's called integrity. Do you have any?

I want to challenge you. Are we people of integrity? Can people cant on our word? Are we good for what we say? Take time to evaluate your life and ask these questions. As you can see I'm still a work in progress. Perhaps your better than me. Lets see how I do this coming tuesday.
