Resolutions or Revival?

2010-01-03T00:47:00.002-06:00

How many of you just made or have made New Year’s resolutions? I see that hand, and that hand, oh, and that one too!! Yup, we all have. I really began thinking this year about resolutions and whether revival is more necessary than a New Year’s resolution. Think about this quote: “New Year’s Resolutions are like friends. They are easier to make than to keep.” —Anonymous(1) Maybe not the most

The 4 of Us Christmas

2009-12-23T00:55:00.000-06:00

This year Melisse and I decided to celebrate Christmas (today) with just us and the boys...you know, starting our own tradition. I was able to take off early and we were able to start our tradition. Simply, this year, we read the Christmas Story and opened gifts. It terms of activities, there was not much. With regard to the quality time we spent, it was pretty special. You'll notice from

Fellowship...

I’m getting ready for the weekend, and am hoping that my Saturday might consist of killing…um, helping the life cycle of a deer. Truthfully, I’m not sure I’ll get one, but after learning my “life lessons” with preparation, I believe if he does rear his head, I’ll be ready! Regardless, I’ll still shoot and get his and my heart rate up!! However, prior to my trip to the deer lease, I’ll be

Prayer

2009-12-08T17:30:00.001-06:00

When a believing person prays, great things happen. JAMES 5:16 Prayer is the recognition that if God had not engaged himself in our problems, we would still be lost in the blackness. It is by his mercy that we have been lifted up. Prayer is that whole process that reminds us of who God is and who we are. I believe there’s great power in prayer. I believe God heals the wounded, and that he

Children's Choir

2009-12-07T01:02:00.000-06:00

In addition to our afternoon decorating the Christmas tree, we got to spend the evening at church watching Cayden sing in our church's "Hanging of the Green" service. Despite his initial reluctancy to sing, Cayden was quite the entertainer. Our joy was found in our family spending this special evening church service together.

Christmas Decorations

When Melisse returned from her Beth Moore weekend, the boys and I had the Christmas tree ready for decorating. So, we spent what little time we had available this afternoon decorating the tree....okay, okay, I took pictures and Melisse and the boys decorated the tree. After all, I had the pleasure of putting the tree together with the boys...it's only fair Melisse get some help too! By the pics

Hunting Lesson

2009-12-02T22:27:00.000-06:00

Here’s the beginning of my attempt to be a blogger. I had debated on doing so, but I thought it would be an opportunity and a place for me to give more of my random thoughts, post various devotionals I read, or give updates about my wonderful family. So, here goes… Thanksgiving… Melisse and I spent the Thanksgiving holiday eating, shopping, and, well, I spent a lot of it hunting deer.
