Boxes

How often do I put God in a box? God is always doing amazing things and most of the time it isn't on my time table. I'm so glad that God is in control and not me. It is so refreshing and encouraging to hear how God is working in others lives. I would encourage you to share what God is doing in your life. You never know it my just make someone elses day. I need to stop putting God in my box!


Father please help me to see you as God and not what I want you to be.

Wow...time is flying by. I can't believe July is almost over. I really need to get focus and disciplined. There is a lot to be done for the Kick-off of youth group. For whatever reason I've been having trouble just being still and focusing on what needs to be done. I guess its all the in and out or I'm just to easily distracted. Well I guess I should try and get some of these things accomplished.

Dear God, Please help me to be focused.

What Matters Most

This was a great read. If you are a person who has trouble saying no and is swampped in busyness this book has great insights for you. It is pretty short and is focused on those that are in ministry but the principles are universal. Busyness is not a badge of honor!
God please help me to develop a deeper love for you and not let busyness rule my life.

Still Alive

Yes I'm still alive and blogging. I just got back from vacation and had a wonderful time of rest and relaxation. Went down to Branson MO with my wife and some great friends. The only downside was that a little bug attacked a couple of us. So for a little bit of the time I got to know spend a good amount of time in the bathroom. Now it is back to some sort of normal schedule.

I'm trying to listen to God and figure out the directions and plans that He has for the youth ministry. Its time to get back into the trenches.

Just finished this book. It took me a little bit but I made it all the way through. It was really good. Lots of reminders and some new ideas to test out. Its important to always be a learner. I thank God that He is the one that is in control and uses me even though I don't do everything right. I'm also greatful for Doug and Duffy sharing their wisdom on the topic of speaking to teenagers.

God is so wise and awesome. I've been reading through 1 Thessalonians. I've been enjoying this time of being in relationship with God. I've read through this book before but God has been teaching and reminding me of what He wants in my life.

God please help me to live by your Spirit.

God's Will

1 Thess 4:3
3 It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; NIV

God wants us to be sanctified. What do you think that looks like in today's world? How would a sanctified life look different from an un-sanctified life? Can this sanctified life be lived Mon-Sat and outside the wall of the church building?

These are the question every person that has a relationship with Jesus needs to ask. I don't think that the answers to these are easy but God gives us more insite....Read 1 Thess 4:1-8.

Lord give me the wisdom and strength to live a sanctified life.
