What A Week

This is probably not going to be a very long post but i wanted to post some things that are going on here.
This week i had started back to work which is always good. Getting to see the people that you know again. Please pray that i will have oppertunitys to witness to these people. The Highest manager there at Burger King is a Christian. It is really nice. sometimes we talk about the bible and things like that it is really neat to be able to talk to someone there about that kind of stuff. Kathy (another manager) she always will ask me questions about the bible because I am in Bible College. That is something that opened allot of doors to wittness. There is another guy there and he work from like 10:30pm to about 6:00am and he comes in and we talk about things of the bible sometimes too. He is unsaved he thinks that your are able to get to Heaven by being a good person. We have talked about those things before but pray for him as well.
Well tuesday after I got off of work my brother called me and was wanting me to meet him up at the Hospital. So I met up with him and was going to go see my Grandpap. He is in real bad shape. He has COPD along with his suger problem and he just found out that he has this staff infection. He had gotten this from the hospital the last time he was in i guess well they had just found out tuesday. This infection is trasferred through the air. We didn't know that when we went in but then they told us to ask the nurses if we had to put something on to see him and they made us put on these masks to go see him. He was really happy to see us, but he is in bad shape I know that.
Then Wednesday we went to church and it was really good my pastor is amazing. He was talking about how sometimes that we go into church without being prepared to receive the message. And many time that is the case and he was talking about people always saying that they are not getting fed and he was saying how that they were not coming to recieve the message. Sometimes it is just what we do I guess. Just go through with the motions and not really get anything out of it. Then he was talking about us in our devotions and how that we don't get anything out of them because of the same reasons. It was really good. Well it is now Thursday but nothing has happened right now. Well I got to go Until Next Time

Memorial Day

Well today was a really nice day. Me and my family was planning on going out of town but instead we went to Pastor Snow's house for a cookout. There were allot of people there. A couple of family's were there that had just been lead to the Lord not to long ago. The one women got saved after the New Year's service, She was there. It was fun though. Pastor Snow is going through a rough time right now though. He has been in Cumberland for about 7 years now, and his church was finally growing and they had the oppertunity to rent for really cheap this one building. They were working on it and fixed it up a good bit, but the people that owned it decided to sell it and they finally go it sold. Now they have to be out by June. This really has him discouraged. Please pray for him that he will be able to find a builing pretty easy. He is having allot of opposition right now. The Lord knows best though
Well today was my first day back to work. I made a couple of mistakes but not to many it was good to see some of the people that I had been working with please pray that I will have oppertunity's to give them the Gospel. Well that is all for now i have to go down and work on my car. Until Next Time!

Good Week!

Well I guess I will start over since the computer is trying to be difficult. I did have allot put down here but I guess the computer didn't like what I had to say ;) Well as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted by the computer, I had met with my pastor Wednesday night and he was talking about the things that I would be involved in this summer if I was interested and of course I told him that I was. And he was giving the suggestions about building up the bus ministry and the youth group which need some attention, and then talking about preaching in church and Jr.church and filling in for a Sunday school when I am needed to and things like that. I don't actually start doing all of this until June so I have time to get some things together. I would like to be as prepared as I can be. I don't want to take this opportunity that the Lord has given me and waste it. The Lord has been working in this. And is a very good opportunity that I have. I am excited to see what the Lord will do this summer!
Well yesterday and today I was working for my Uncle Steve and we were doing some landscaping doing mulch and shoveling and moving stone. We (Me, Ronnie, and Uncle Steve) had moved about 96 buckets of stone ( each bucket was about 80 pounds I believe so that was interesting. It was fun though I like doing stuff like that. My Uncle as far as I know is unsaved. They go to a church, but am unsure of what they preach. I think that they do believe in salvation, but does not have a good stand on the Word of God. Please pray for him and his wife for their salvation.
Well I think is about time for me to get ready to go to bed so until next time ... Bye.

Finally Home!

Well I am now home, And I have been since yesterday but I didn't get a chance to post yet.
Well to start off I had a good week at School for the last week it seemed like it was a short time at school this last semester, but it was a good one. Some things didn't work the way I had wanted them to but the Lord had taught me some good lessons along the way. Getting back to the last week of school now. We had allot of different things going on. We went to Cabelas, that was a really good time to hang out with the guys before they graduate. Then we got back to school and we had pizza that night it was a good day. Then that Thursday was graduation which was pretty good. The graduation last year was allot longer. There were only four graduates this year so it was not as long. Then there was a fellowship afterwards so that was a good time as well.
Then that Friday morning all of us from the college went out for breakfast before we all went our separate ways. As for Me, Seth, Shane, and Joel, we went to a cabin up in the mountains with Seth. It was a really good time. Shane slept most of the time trying to get some sleep that he lost the previous night staying up all night talking on the phone. Saturday we went out to shoot Joel's guns and I didn't do so good I think that I may need to practice up on that. Then we went back to the cabin and ate Lunch and then that was when Joel and I went out on the canoe it was a good time Joel was really funny, but he always is. That was about all that we had done that was interesting for that day.
Sunday night we got to go to Mt.Zion Baptist Church and it was an amazing service. I really like the message that Pastor Randy Starr had brought forth. The message was called "Overcoming Fear" That was a good message That I really needed. There were some things that I had to get right in my own life. Also I had to come back here and try to overcome some of the fears that I am facing. I have a meeting with my pastor Wednesday to talk about the position that he is giving me so that will be good I was talking to him Monday but he wanted to talk to me at church. Please pray for me doing this ministry. This is one of the fears i have is doing the youth. but when God wants us to do something new we have to overcome some fears please pray that I am able to. I know that the Lord will give me the strength I need for this task.
Well being home I have not been doing much since I have gotten here just getting to talk to my family again, and things like that. I need to unpack more things so far i had just unpacked all the things that have to do with my computer so I still need to work on that. Getting in touch with some of the friends I have here.
Next week I will be getting back to work Four to midnight again most likely. Then I am probably going to try to get another job but I don't know whats going on yet.
Well I had spent allot of time on here I need to get doing other things until next time.

Take's A While

Well it takes me a while to post. I have no idea why I wait so long, but it will be okay. Well where to begin. Well Last Friday was the Piano Recital and that was really interesting the Theme was Mozart, and that was weird. I knew one song that was played and that was "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" It was fun though.
That Saturday we had a Jr. Church activity and I got there and Mr. Bradshaw asked me if i would go put up one of the kids because I Knew where they Lived and so I got there and their were five kids wanting to go. Well my car don't hold that many so I took Chance only and he really liked my car but wouldn't sit still. but got him to calm down and was talking to him. We had allot of games and things like that it was a good time. Although they didn't give me a plate to run to when the whistle was blown;) Wow! Anyway then when it was all over we had a piggy back race and I won! Christopher was on my back and he was really excited about that.
Then later that day we got to Paintball at the Crews House and that was allot of fun we played allot and I used allot of paintball's I wasn't doing to bad Me and Adam were the only ones to capture the Flag and I did it twice so I was excited about that. that we had a fire going cooking hot dogs over the fire it was really good and then we had some smores. Then Mr. Crews had a devotional and was talking about what Mr. Nissley had talked about on the Thursday, And about how often we forget what was said from the pulpit. But it was a good time of fellowship with them.
well that is all for today I guess until Next time!
