Whoah…

Been a while, eh?

Valley of Vision “Confidence”

“May every part of my character and conduct make a serious and amiable impression on others, and impel them to ask the way to the Master.”

Jehoshaphat

 

Two weeks ago, Joel McDaniel spoke about “7 marks of a Biblical leader” from 2 Chronicles.  He specifically used King Jehosaphat as the primary example.  In chapter 20, the Moabites, Ammonites, and Meunites come against him in battle. Jehoshaphat turns to the Lord for guidance, and at the end of his prayer, he says, “We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you” (20:12(b)).  Lately, Marie and I have been thinking about this.  Many times I wish the Lord would just tell me what to do in certain situations.  It has been liberating to look to the Lord in these times and say “We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.”  Thank the Lord for his guidance. 

American Idol

Recently, Marie and I have been watching American Idol.  Unfortunately, we do not watch both episodes every week but when we can see one of them we really enjoy it.  We specifically like Danny Gokey and Anoop Dawg.  Our least favorites in the top 7 are Lil Rounds and the other girl, but mainly Lil Rounds.  Also, if Paula was in the top 7 she would replace both Lil Rounds and the red headed girl (I cant even remember her name) for my least favorite.  The best thing about Lil Rounds is her striking resemblance to LaFonda from “Napolean Dynamite”.  Could she already be a “star”?  See the pictures below.  I hope she is not cheating.

Sleep well…..

I found this picture on the Felton blog.  It had no description but it appears Matt has gently tucked his new tennis racquet into bed with him.  It is good to know that he cares so deeply for what has been entrusted to him.  Also for crucial pictures take a look at the Felton blog.

Hallelujah, What a Savior

Lifted up was He to die, “it is finished” was His cry

Now in heaven exalted high, Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Snow Day

This past week we were blessed with a beautiful snow storm.  On Monday night we went to bed hoping to see snow on Tuesday morning.  Marie, however, would not allow me to set my alarm for 3am to monitor the atmospheric conditions.  Fortunately, I was able to wake up at 1:30 am on my own!  I went to the kitchen, looked out the window and was  amazed by the beauty of snow.  After watching the snow for awhile, I ate a brownie and drank some milk and went back to bed.  Tuesday we both worked from home and watched the snow fall all day.  We had a few breaks for me to hit Marie with some snowballs.  It was a great day, and Marie could not believe how excited & pumped I was about snow.  Below are some pictures of the snow.
