A old Song, with good lyrics




What would happen if your neighbors and friends found out that you were a Jesus Freak?

A new Day and New Dog

We have new dog at our house. Sometimes I love this animal to death, and other times I want to put it to death. My daughters love their dog. Bizbee will follow my 4 year old around the yard, and loves to give her kisses. My 2 year old loves to tell Bizbee to sit, unfortunately it comes out "sh**" :(.

The best memory I have of Bizbee is her first Sunday living oat our house. We live on church property, so all we do is walk to church on Sunday mornings. We left Bizbee in the fenced yard, and thought that all is good. Later while I am doing announcements she come sin the front door, and down the aisle. Needless to say I Am little embarrassed. What I should of said is this "See we take coming so seriously at my house, even our dog gets it!"

I don't know if you belong to a church community. So of us have been burned bad, and others just have not gotten "into the habit". The reasons I like being part of community is because it helps this introvert to know people. Plus I like to sing, and preach the Good Word. I like to see haircuts,new clotes, smiling kids, catching up with people, and I enjoy the fellowship time before and after the service. I like listening to other people, their problems or joys and praying or praising with them.

It is cool. Even though there is a lot wrong with the church today (political wars, worship style wars, "righteous ACTS", people pleasing, It's about ME! and a bunch of other stuff). I can look around my church and see people, that I do not mind going to war for and with. I see that if I have need it will most likely be met (if I they know about it) and that I can learn from them, as they learn from me.

It is easy to look at all the bad stuff, maybe we need to change our focus and look at the good.

Dale E

I watched the CMT show Dale the other night and it got me to thinking about what would people say about me after I died? Would I be known as a man that loved the Lord, loved his family and the people around him? Will I be known for being a world-wide known preachers? Not that I am one but who knows what God will do with my life.

We will all die someday. What we do with this life that God has given us will matter. Did I glorify God? Was I a good and faithful servant? That is what really matters. How did I show the Love I have for Jesus to other people?

The parts of the "Dale" show was when He won Talladega and was shouting "Praise God"! People knoew that Dale loved the Lord. Jesus and racign were big parts of his life. I think that si what made Dale a hero to me. He lived his life, and gave God the glory for his success.

It also reminded me of another hero of mine who once said "Everyman dies, not everyman really lives."Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
