Christ and football

I hear it all the time: Tebow is a joke. I don't like Tebow. Blah blah blah...

Read this. And watch the video.

May we all bless someone today.

Sunroof

The other day was nice. Warmer. Cool breeze. And NO rain. I grabbed the dogs and head to the park. Windows down. Sunroof open. Miller thought the sunroof was amazing. This is how he rode the entire time.

Perspective

12 years old. What were you like? I was probably in the driveway playing basketball or getting into something outside. You are 12. All you do is enjoy sunny days, hang out with friends, and eat dinner when Momma calls you in.

Yesterday, a man from work called. He asked me if I would go to Blair E. Batson Children's Hospital. There is a little girl with cancer that loves watching Mississippi Outdoors and she wants to meet me. My goodness. I was very honored by this opportunity.

I take her a few Mississippi Outdoors items, a Realtree hat, and a Hot Heads hat. I walk into the room to see a precious 12 year old girl laying in a hospital bed. My heart sinks. I introduce myself and hand her the stuff I brought. She loved it all. She immediately put the Hot Heads hat on. She really loved it.

I sit on her bed. We chat. She tells me she loves hunting and fishing. She loves her friends. She plays basketball, softball, tennis, and volleyball. She is a cheerleader. And she wants her school to start a kickball team. Hearing her talk, I couldn't help but to think-she and I had so much in common, minus the cheerleading and kickball.

I am very glad I got to meet such a special little girl. It really made my day.

Her name is Karrie. Karrie has a strong cancer. Karrie has a stronger God. Please pray for sweet Karrie and her family. They were all so worn out yet hopeful.

If life doesn't find you in the hospital today, then be thankful. Perspective. It's all how you look at it.

Confusion

Finding peace to our madness. Comfort to our sadness. This is our God.

Humbly, I pray for my friends that hurt today. We aren't made to understand everything. Trust and faith must be your key players. Doubt is second string on the JV team. Don't play it.

1 Corinthians 14:33

Hello 2010

Starting a new year can be a tricky thing. As the gyms are full and the organic isle is empty, one can't help but to think. I know I could shed a few pounds and eat better myself. Have I started that? No. Not even close. Although I did get the stomach bug and lost a few. In time, it pasted, and I found those pounds again.

I've never made a New Year's resolution. Probably never will. I know myself too well to do that. Instead I just try to do good (whatever the good is). Although, I will skydive this year.

July 2010 I will turn 28. Yippy. Not quite as I thought things would be at this age. But that is good. Because there is so much good. I have a healthy family. I have a chunky, adorable nephew. My car is still going. I have a funny dog. And I have a roof over my head.

I have no clue what stumbles and bumps will come this year but I know one thing. Things that matter and things that don't. There is nothing that time won't erase and money won't replace.

As I spend time reflecting on life, my future, and if I should find a new job...I can't help but smile. I'm blessed. I'll find a better job. My life is good. And whatever comes up in life, I can face it.

I hope this new year brings a good and positive attitude to us all. A patient heart. And a loving spirit. Thank God for dogs, friends, and music. Amen.

This is Moses, me, and Miller watching the ducks on the Rez. I do love these dogs!
