Reflecting

Looking over the last year I cannot decribe the ups and downs we have been through in our lives. But what I can describe is the reality I am living with today knowing that over 2000 years ago my Saviour was killed by people who thought they knew God and were trying to be what they understood God to be. I also look into the truth that Jesus chose to be wrong in the face of those people becasue he knew he was right in the sight of God. And as this story has played out my life has been changed and guided becasue of the truth and wieght of that reality. MAn what a God who would die for me even while I was his enemy. I long for life in Jesus, because there is no tomorrow with Him.

Life

I was built for this. I am living my dream of what God built me to be. I spent most of my day today hanging out with some students who came to the building to volunteer. I love the affirmation God brings to me through this new life I have and I know that I am created for this moment to be here. God is shaping me into a new person as I belong and become here at Mountain Lake. I am being afforded the opportunity to influence churches beyond our community through the church planting efforts we have and I am able to see churches get intentional about reaching into culture to reach students.

At home things are reaching a state of normal as we have gotten through the stomach virus that plagued our family. AArrggh. It was nasty. Farah is doing well and I cannot tell you the love and respect I have for her as she is the primary care giver to two boys who push the limits ever hour. We are getting adjusted to life in NW Georgia and are exploring the area weekly for cheap fun things to do.

There is the update, let me know what is up in y'alls world.
