Hang on...2/22/2013

During the tough times in life when God stirs your iced tea with his finger...

Just stick to the wall of the glass with the other ice cubes & hang on...

It'll all be over before you know it...

And when it finally settles down, that's when everything gets a little bit sweeter...

An underrated gift 11/7/2010

November 7-2010

Smiling is one of my favorite things to do...

A smile, I believe can show a stranger your soul..
Even when you try to hide it...


When you offer a smile..

A total stranger can't help but offer one back..

On a rare occasion, there will be the ONE,
who will look away...

And refuse to repay the price of a simple smile that you were willing to pay them for a glance into their soul to help brighten your day along with the opportunity to illuminate theirs..

So instead of taking this in an insulting way...say a silent prayer for them..

For...They...

May be in the darkest corner of their life...

In a position where their soul is tucked away..

Afraid to allow anyone...

Especially you, a total stranger a simple glimpse into their heart..

But unannounced to them..
The sight of a frown will show us the heart...

A prayer for those wondering in the wilderness of distress is what I always offer in return as I softly walk away..probably never to face them again..but still..

You were in my prayers..if only for a moment..

Your were there...

Never laugh at what you do not understand....

MY RANT OF THE DAY:

I laugh at those who believed rumors that my job and my business was a joke..

And they still make up excuses at how I'm winning at life, without accepting the fact that ALL those rumors were lies....

I WENT FROM:

0 - Toaster - AirMatress - BMW in 17 months...

To 90% debt free in 24 months...

Only by the grace of God...and the crazy will to succeed he embedded deep in my heart...

Oh....and I never expect any "I'm sorrys" from those who help spread the lies...and laughed at me while I was sleeping on a blow up mattress...when I didn't even have a bed for Bella to sleep in..

Well...except from one person...who called me today, crying and apologized, and told me they believed the lies and laughed at me behind my back..

Thank you...you have more spine than anyone I've ever known in my life..

God is GOOD!

He is SO good...

GOD is so good...

He's so good.... to me....

Blessed....

Regardless...

"REGARDLESS"

     I know some very good men who worked security around President Obama...and without a doubt, personally he is an incredibly great guy, very talkative and personable....."Regardless" of the opinions of the multitudes...he is NOT a jerk!

But..... just because "I KNOW" he was a horrible leader and president, does NOT label me as a racist!

"Regardless" of what the media wants you to believe! 

And just because someone VOTED for TRUMP does NOT mean they are bigots who hate anyone of color!

The liberal media has infected the minds of MILLIONS of people. 

And sadly those people STILL allow them to rule their thoughts and judgments, "regardless" of the truth!

I loved the Obamas! 

I was just very disappointed in the mess he created in our nation.

IN 8 years we went from 9 trillion to 19 trillion in debt...our debt should be going BACKWARDS not forward (Bush did the same thing!)

BUT the BILLIONS the Obamas squandered in vacations, that could have been invested into our failing economy is what sickens me to my stomach...

The money they spent, could have nearly rebuilt the entire city of DETROIT! 

Does THIS put it in perspective for you?

Will Trump fix this? I hope..

But if he does NOTHING he is no worse than the last 2 presidents...

At least Slick Willy balanced the budget!

Hate Bill Clinton all you want...but he did!

So let's pray for Trump...

Every day...please...

Because if he doesn't fix this financial typhoon...

Our children won't have a future...

Post thought: 

Being a 49 year old single father of a beautiful 3 year old daughter, I am truly worried about the financial future of my country, and worried about the stability of the line of security that will ultimately separate US from those who want us dead...

I will probably be on the other side when my daughter reaches my age...and this brings me to tears worrying about what she may face without me to lean on....

God bless

True Worship....

True Worship...

(Many won't like this, but I don't care)

We don't have this in our churches anymore...

We are so stuck within this repetitive analogy of what we have been taught to believe, that worship is SUPPOSED to be...

That we freely refuse to interject ANYTHING into our "so called worship" that would interrupt the time line of our HOLY schedules...

So we just sit there, in our seats, as if we are waiting and demanding God to move because we are doing it all right , right there in the pews...

We have 15 minute prayers, hour long sermons and sing until we cannot speak...

And we leave thinking we have done God a favor by showing up.

I was in a service once where the pastor just stood there in total silence...

He then walked over and turned off half the lights...

Walked back over to the middle of the stage and just stood there.

Within minutes weeping began to break out...

People were running to the alter of prayer..

Lives were changed...souls were saved...

Without a single song, prayer or message...

Sometimes God just wants us to SHUT UP and listen....

Instead of filling the air with repetitious noise....

ALL INTO PERSPECTIVE....

As of yesterday.... 48 years I have been blessed to experience on this big beautiful earth... I haven't had an easy life... It's actually been a constant battlefield for me... I have traveled far in my life.... I have been to places many have only dreamed of going... I've seen things in my life that would give the ordinary man nightmares for the rest of his days... I've been touched by an angel and chased by demons... I've faced death more times in my life than most would in 20 lifetimes... All starting with almost losing my life to illnesses as an infant... But the one thing in my life.... That dwarfs it all... The one thing the erases all my mistakes... and brings my life into perspective as an example of God's extreme perfection.... Is when my daughter's arms are wrapped tightly around my neck knowing she is safe from what just filled her heart with fear... Being a father.... is unlike anything I have ever dreamed... Every time I look into my daughter's big black eyes... I only see the eternal future... Because every stupid thing I've ever done in my life just disappears... Every time she calls me Pappa...

Emotional Choo choo!

Quote from Bill Dauterive from the show "King of the hill" to first time broken hearted boomhauer:

I know how dark it is for you right now, curled up..lying in your own emotional vomit...

Your in HELL now Boomhauer and the only way out is through a long dark tunnel and your afraid to go in...becuzz there's a train comin' at'cha carry'n a boxcar full of heartbreak..

Well...le'me tell ya sumthin'...

All you can do is let it hit ya..

And then try to find your legs..

Hmmmm? I know...I've taken that hit more times than I can remember..

But, Look at me Boomhauer....!

I'm fat...and I'm old...and everyday....I'm just gonna wake up fatter and older!

But yet somehow I'm able to drag this fat old bastard out of the bed everyday! Diggin' holes...fall'n in to'em...climb'n out tryin'


again....

My thoughts:
This so profound to be coming from a comical adult cartoon...

It literally hit me in the stomach! (Sorry for the superlative...I was only quoting...)

Regardless: this really hit home with me tonight...

I thought I needed to share this...maybe it will help you heal a little more...just like it did me...

Thank you and God bless the writers who penned this scene...)
