Material Things

I just recently made a purchase that I love. Yes I love a material thing!
This is not a common occurrence, no not me making a purchase, but me loving something material.

Loving material things is a very good thing to do. I say that cause this could turn into more of a idol. I will be sure that wont happen.
You may be wondering what it is, well given the amount of snowfall can you guess? Yes  a snow thrower. More to the point a Troybilt Snow thrower.
So you can see why I love this thing. Well OK maybe love is a bad choice of words. Anyway I am so happy now that I was able to purchase this.

God is so good to us. Giving us the resources to make purchased like this. God Bless you!

200th Post

This is my 200th Post I thought I would share a poem I wrote for my love.

From the heart

I love thee

From the mind I need thee

Oh my love I so want you

To see me and for you to have me

For your heart to love

Look for me deep in your mind

And search your heart to find me

Baby I love the thought of us together

Holding and loving

Walking in the rain and singing together

Falling in love all over and over again

As we gaze into each other’s eyes.

My heart aches when we are apart

I long for the moment in time where our

Touch will stop everything and in that moment

You are the only one I am thinking about

Baby you are my heart and my love

I love you

The Glistening

The glistening water of a waterfall

oh such power yet such beauty

One can see the awesomeness

Is this just random thing to see

Or is this of divine nature

How wonderful when you see a rainbow

in the falls

It reminds of a promise

A promise so long ago

Never will the earth be flooded again

How many remember

How many forget

Day in and day out

There is no thanks given

Today I give thanks

To the Lord above

Thanks for the waterfall

Thanks for the chance in this world

Remember that God is a God of Love

But we must do our part.

God Bless you today!

Izak

As we found out that you were there

Our hearts leaped and we began to anticipate

The life that we will have with you around

We watched you grow and mature within your mommy

We anticipated when you would be able to see us

We prayed for you and we took care and made sure we were ready

Your daddy and mommy got your room all ready

We bought you clothes and toys

The day got closer and mommy and daddy began to beam with joy

Mommy and Daddy went to see the Doctor

And we could see you on a picture

It wasn’t too clear, but I am sure you were smiling in anticipation of the day

When we get to see you and hold you

The day finally came and Izak you were born

Your daddy and mommy were very proud

And as we watch you grow now and think to ourselves
We can help but thank our Lord Jesus for the perfect

Bundle of joy you are, Daddy and mommy

Are very pleased to have you around us

We can’t imagine what life would be with out you

Now we look into the future and start to plan for your future

We know that the future holds many exciting things, like College

Girls and Marriage, but for now Izak we are just going to enjoy the

Little life that God has given us charge over, to raise and train you

In the way God has intended us to

Thank you Izak for being part of our lives and

We hope that you will be as blessed as we have been

We Love You Izak!!!

No Unwanted Anomalies

So what do you call worship. In my mind worship is anything you can do for our Lord and Savior Jesus. What I mean is when you are serving in the house of God on a Sunday. Yes everything you do to serve in His house I considers worship. So for those who view mixing sound is not worshiping I think you have it wrong, I think serving Jesus in all that you do in the His house you should consider that as your worship for the day, yes you can sing while mixing, just an added bonus. When the service has ended and you feel you have done an adequate job (meaning no complaints, no feedback, no unwanted anomalies) then you have successful worshiped in serving. Now even if there were anomalies you still were worshiping our Savior. I believe worship to be a heart attitude, if you go in to the Sunday and view that as a job and not for serving then you might need to check to see why you are donning this. There should be prep time when you are on for that particular event, what I mean is you should pray and seek God to give you wisdom and guidance for the day (not unlike the band on stage that you are mixing for).

Extraordinary Happiness

You and I are connected

in a way that goes beyond romance,

beyond friendship,

beyond what we've ever had before.

It has defied time, distance,

and changes in ourselves

and in our lives.

It has defied every explanation.

Except one:

Pure and simply, we're soul mates.

I can't explain, I just feel it.

It's there in the way my spirits lift

whenever we talk.

The sound of your voice brings me home,

in a way I can't explain.

It's in the delight I feel, when we laugh

at exactly the same things.

When I'm with you,

it's like a tiny piece of the universe

shifts into place.

A place it's supposed to be,

and all is right with the world.

These things and so many more,

that this is a once in a lifetime,

forever connection.

A connection that could only exist

between you and me.

And deep in my soul,

I know that our relationship

is a rare gift.

One that brings us

extraordinary happiness

all through our lives.
