Wait

The series at FFC is called Wait. You can go to www.farmlandfriends.org or www.simplywait.com to see what the excitement is about. Pastor Kris message in week two was a mirror image of my life last week. It you were at the service you heard my testimony. To make a long story short, it does come down to your faith and confidence in God. I have always wanted to do it my way. I would jump ahead of God's plan for me and try to handle things my way. Needless to say I have always messed it up. The past week I decided to listen to and obey God. He told me to "wait" I have put my faith and confidence in Him. He will make the next decision on my future. Pastor Kris is right: if you dont put your confidence in God you will lose your faith. I will now wait on God to provide and move me forward.

I have been a Christian for many years. I have grown up in church and known God for I long time. Yet in all those years I have not grown as a Christian. That changed this weekend and I know have a real relationship with God. I am more eager to learn, pray and grow in Christ.

Growth Groups

EVERYONE SHOULD BELONG TO ONE!!!! Yes I am shouting. If you attend to Farmland Friends Church you really need to join. Wow. Our group met last evening and I am telling you the Holy Spirit flooded the room. We did life. We laugh, some say too much, We cry, some say too much, I say just right. We care and take care of each other. This may sound like a commerical but if that is what it takes to get you in a group then so be it. Some say it only social, it is but we also learn the word of God. We have different levels are Bible knowledge in our group and its exciting to learn from all. I use to think I could be a Christ follower without church, other people, but this is contrary to God's word. If not my group, find one you are comfortable with and join.

In YOU!!!!

IN YOU!!!!!!

The hungry feast at the table.....

The blind will be frozen by colors and hue......

The lame will dance the dance when the are able.....

And the weary find rest IN YOU


Praise GOD

Compliments of Mercy Me

Saturday Night Services at FFC

Pastor Kris announced in his blog that the Sat. night service will be ending soon. I understand the reasons behind it, but sad to see it go. My son Eric has played in the worship band ever since the Sat. night services started. I have been part of the service myself. I was head usher for awhile. I also helped some with the power point program that projected song lyrics and semons onto the screens. Yes, I was part of PK favorite service of giving away the Wii. I got the banana(me bitter............no..........LOL). It was a fun service and I was very glad PK gave the Wii to the young boy. I want to thank PK, Pastor Jeff, Pastor Marggy for their service. A big prop to Bruce who led worship....great job Bruce. I want to thank Cari Lott and Dennis Patty for helping me learn just enough of visual program to make me danagerous........LOL.

Looking

I have sent out over 50 resumes online over the last couple of days. I work for the county. I could say more but I wont. Needless to say... government work doesnt pay very well. I need to find one job that will pay the bills or find a part-time job on a midnight shift to help out. I have always worked two jobs, so this will be nothing new, but the older I get the harder it is to do. I continue to look and wait for God to provide.

Rough Weekend

More snow. Made for interesting drive to Frankfort.

MC Bears lose heartbreaker to Rockville 64-63 in ot. The Bears played hard and with class and makes me proud to be part of the program.

Pastor Kris nailed me yesterday. See, I am one of those who believe in miracles (because I have witnessed one in our small group), but it always happens to others. PK sermon will help me believe that it will, does, can, etc happen to me. I am expecting a big miracle this week. If it doesnt happen I will still continue to worship and praise our great God!

Groundhog stew

That would be the menu if the weather doesnt break soon. If I here "lines down" on more time I going to lose it. NOW!! the forecast calls for near blizzard conditions Friday night and Sat. It could be a long trip to Frankfort on Saturday for the Regionals. I need a sunny and 72 forecast so I can fish and regain any mental health I have left. Thanks for letting me vent.

Ramblings

Pastor Kris gave me a link on his blog. Cool

Blessed by being a leader of great growth group.

I have a great wife and a couple of great boys(although they drive me crazy sometimes)

I love a great cheeseburger.

I really enjoy sports.

Weather forecasters are having a bad winter. They havent gotten anything right.

Favorite sports teams: Any I coach LOL. MC Bears, Indy Colts, Cincinnati Reds, IU Basketball

Electricity is going on and off. Probably due to ice which makes me busy at work. Please stay on lights.

I enjoy contempory christian music. I wish a could play or sing.

I am a child of God.

Good Week

Busy but fun week. Most of week consisted of traveling to Blue River Valley High School for the high school basketball sectional. The week ended well with a sectional championship. It is the first for new head coach Jeremy Duncan(as head coach) and some of the other assts. coaches. Coach Moore and myself have been part of 4 titles since 2000. The season continues next week as we travel to the land of the frankfurters. We play the regional at Frankfort High School. Its a long drive so we might as well make a day of it and win it all.

Church and growth group was great. Anytime you can worship God and fellowship with fellow believers it makes for awesome day.

Still looking the a job that pays enough to pay the bills. Still sending out resumes and interviewing with no luck yet.
