Move Mountains

Do you ever get so focused on something that you forget about who God is? I do. You could say I have an undiagnosed case of ADHD. But I have a one-track mind. I do things one at a time until they are complete. Even when I eat Thanksgiving dinner everyone laughs at me because I work my way around the plate eating one thing at a time instead of a little bit of everything. Joshua must have been the same way. While getting ready to conquer Jericho, an angel appeared to him in his sleep. Because war was on his mind, his immediate reaction was, "Are you for us, or against us?" The angel replied, "No. But I am the commander of God's army." The angel only says one more thing to Joshua, "Take off your shoes because the place where you stand is holy." That's it! The whole reason for God revealing Himself to Joshua was to remind him that He is there, and He is holy. I need God to do that for me. I need God to shake up my little world, move mountains, reveal His glory through nature, just to tell me He is holy. How powerful is that!

Memorials

What has God done for you that you need to tell? In Joshua, God tells the people of Israel to set up memorials so they don't forget the mighty hand of God on their lives. There's something to be said for placing memorials in our lives. Tokens that help us remember what God has done so that we share it with others. Sometimes I like to take the credit for myself and sometimes I just forget, but that's why memorials are important. These are places you go back and re-visit time and time again to remind you that it was God who was at work in your life. Make a memorial today.

Busy, Busy, Busy

This summer has been crazy! Elisa and I are engaged...that's the headline story of the summer. She has an internship at a production studio plus Chick-fil-A, while I have two internships and Chick-fil-A. Good thing we work together in the evenings or we probably wouldn't see each other!

We just got back from a weeek-long vacation in Ohio. The family reunion was wonderful and we made lots of fun memories. The whole family enjoyed meeting Elisa and getting to know her. I think she was a hit! She was for me anyway!

Well, I'm at the TV station now and the show is starting in 20 minutes...lots to do...so I'll chat later. Make it a great day!

Exciting Stuff!

I know, I know...it has been awhile. To be completely transparent, I simply ran out of stuff to talk about! I'm not a professional blogger...so it happens. But today is a new day and I am excited about my little lady coming home in only 15 days! We have such a fun summer planned with both of us having two internships besides our regular job. We'll be busy, but we'll make time for fun and for each other. I'll strive to keep us all updated on the events of the summer as they transpire. Much more to come later! Make it a great day!
