This Wednesday


Come celebrate my 30th birthday this Wednesday. I'll give away some stuff I like, they'll be a surprise for everyone and afterwards I head off to Miami. My wife has surprised me with a 4-day Cruise from Miami to Key West to Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. No need to bring anything just yourself and a friend.

Where We Staying At?

Cry Out To God

Isaiah 38.1-3 [MSG]: 1 At that time, Hezekiah got sick. He was about to die. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz visited him and said, "God says, 'Prepare your affairs and your family. This is it: You're going to die. You're not going to get well.'"

2-3Hezekiah turned away from Isaiah and, facing the wall, prayed to God: "God, please, I beg you: Remember how I've lived my life. I've lived faithfully in your presence, lived out of a heart that was totally yours. You've seen how I've lived, the good that I have done." And Hezekiah wept as he prayed—painful tears.

What I find encouraging in this pasage of scripture is that A PREACHER, A PROPHET, A MAN OF GOD went to the king and told him he was goign to die. And the king chose to turn away from that report, face THE WALL and cry out to GOD! No matter who tells you what, God has the final say so. Those painful tears, that bitter weeping moved God and God told Isaiah "Tell Hezekiah he will live."

Your tears are powerful. God is not immune to your tears. He is not blind to your hurt. He does not consider your emotions irrelevant. On the contrary, it says in Psalms 56.8 and that He keeps our tears in bottles. He has a room full of jars, vases and bottels--a collection of our tears. He knows when we dorpped them and why.


Go ahead, cry out to God! Turn to Him when the world gives you a bad report. when the situation gets to much for you. When you are filled with dispair, anger, bitterness, hurt, pain... CRY OUT TO GOD... He willlisten and move on your behalf.

More over, He will do the impossible for you. For Hezekiah, God moved the shadow of the sun dial (the time keeper) back 10 degrees or steps. The Impossible! Hezekiahs prayer and painful cry resulted in the impossible being done. Come on now, that is pwerful.

I Double Dog Dare You

Check This Out... Tye Tribbett & "Victory"

Pay attention to his teaching on "temptation" before the cool intro to the song "Victory"

Kleenex Commercials... Let It Out

UK version


US version

She Shoots... And she... Well, the crowd goes wild

My little Cora had begged us for about a year now to play some basketball... She's done soccer and gymnastics. She wants to do football and dance and just recently, cheerleading. So here is a clip of our baby girl "dribbling" the ball and going for a shot. She plays for the YMCA with Coach Andy and I think her favorite part of the game is getting in a huddle, and saying "Go Hawks!" She has about three more games to play... Go CORA!

Song: For Who You Are



Verse:
Standing here in Your presence
Thinking of the good things You have done
Waiting here patiently
Just to hear Your still small voice again

PreChorus:
Holy, righteous, faithful to the end,
Saviour, healer, redeemer, and friend

Chorus:
I will worship You for who You are
I will worship You for who You are
I will worship You for who You are
Jesus (repeat)

Bridge:
My soul secure, Your promise sure
Your love endures always (2x)

Testing It Before...

As Cora moved from formula to cereal to baby foods, I would always test it before I would give it to her. This takes that to a whole---natha----level... This guy is testing a shock collar for dogs...

Okay, Okay... Need Feed Back

So have put up about four different ROUGH ideas for the NEW T-shirt... This is the feedback I need: What do you like from the four examples (ex: i like it messy, or i like it simple, i like it crazy, etc.)... Do you like the saturn logo to be on it? Of coarse LOYC and/or live oak youth church will be on the t-shirt... Becuase of the company we are going to order t-shirts from, the idea must be on the ADOBE program... AND Becuase I'm trying to keep cost down (below $9 per t-shirt) I am trying to stay with one or two colors on the design. So please, leave comments...

How about this: If you leave a comment, you will elegible for a RANDOM drawing to recieve a free T-shirt... does that help?

One More...
