I figgerd it out

On one of my last posts, I asked the question "why isn't this God's will when everything is so right?" Well I think that I have the answer. Ok I lied, I got nothing. It seems that my planning out of my life is important and necessary for growth and learning, but just for that. God's planning of my life is the thing that directly impacts my future. I can plan on going to a church and serving as a youth pastor and take all of the necessary steps, but all that it will accomplish is experience in my "what to do or not to do" area of my brain. My planning is very helpful and needed, but if it is not THE PLAN, then it will only take me so far. So, either way it was good.

Home alone

Hey guys, wife is gone, home alone, anyone for a party? Seriously, though I never thought that being married and then being apart for a few days would be so lonley. So I have been working with Matt McCarnan and that has been grand. But working is a bit different then being with the wife. I rented a movie, and a video game to keep me company, but they only amused me for so long. This is what it means to be old!!!!!!!!!!!

Once in a blue moon

This all seems wierd. I think I have been here before. Yeah, I was here last February. I vaguely remember. Almost like it was a dream.
I would like to first of all say a big thank you to all of my friends who make fun of me because I do not blog. That was the encouragement that I needed. So now the time has come to re-cap my life since February.
Just kidding.
But I will make this short and sweet because I am supposed to be working. God has been teaching me all sorts of things. From being newly married, I have realize how selfish I am. Plus since I am now staying in Watertown for a little bit longer my plans have changed quite a bit. For those of you who don't know, I had a church looking at me for their youth pastor position in Michigan. They were very interested in me for over a month. I went back for the second visit and had a great time. But they wanted to look elsewhere. So now I am back to square one. Here is a question for thought. I thought that this was going to be God's will for my life. I was excited about the opportunity, I had a passion for these teens, but why would all of that be there if it wasn't God's will? Everything seemed clear and set in place where it should be and then the rug is taken out from under my feet. What is the deal? Well I am gonna think on that one for a bit.
It has been a year since my brother died. Life is not the same still, but I cherish it all the more.
Miss ya bro.

Hmm...

Okay, this NOT Bobby Endyk updating this blog, because he never does. He refuses to. I think it is a laziness issue. Let us just say that someone he knows figured out how to hack into his blog and update it for him. So now all of you that check it semi-often in the hopes that something new will be posted might be happy once in a while!

Unbelievable...
