Prayer please.

Another year of upwards is over and once again my overcompetivness got the better of me on a couple of occasions, what was it Paul said about doing the things you don't want to. It was a better year but I have a long way to go. I love giving testimonies at halftimes but what good could come of it if I blow my stack afterwords over something so trivial. Saturday was a great day, spending the day with a friend and his awesome little girl. One of my friends turned 39 on Monday and I missed his cake and ice cream trying to get our son ready to go to D.C. He loves history so seeing all the stuff on his itinerary will be a blast for him especially anything to do with WWII, pray for them to have safe travel and remember to pray for our Pastors and their families.

HELP ME LORD!

After a trying weekend, the week has started in the same manner, only Tuesday, and I'm wiped
out already. I love my job, these weeks are tough though, supervising production as we start the busy season, and helping teach the school makes for a long day. The Lord is good though and gives me strength to carry on. Things would be much tougher if not for the strength God provides. One week of upwards left, the season has gone by fast, not fast enough for Pastor Wally though. Pray for those who have heard the good Word at a game this year that God would change their life, how anyone could hear the good news and choose otherwise still confounds me.
Perhaps I've forgoten what it's like to have those doubts, or fear of rejection, from who though, a world in which I'm just a number, a consumer, a taxpayer. Thank you GOD

MEMORIES!

Today, for the first time since I started working for the Golfworks, we went home early,
it was a blessing, I've heard my friends Jeff S. and Sam S. made it home safely, Thank you God.
Kris and the kids were off today and the boys came in soon after I got home, they had been snowboarding. That brings back memories from when I was little, walking to moundbuilders
and sledding, shoveling snow for vacation money, and going to Woolworths for hot chocolate afterwords. The giant snowmounds they would pile up in the court, king of the hill, snowball fights with the whole neighborhood involved, iceskating around the block, street hockey. Now I just hole up inside and read, and hibernate, wanted to sled tonight but it's to wet, oh well. Gods speed if you have to drive tommorow.

another great weekend

Went to Columbus Friday and got the new cover, and filter, for the hot tub, can't wait to use it. Upwards was great again, but I'm getting exited about having a Saturday free here soon, maybe go to a movie with the family. Austin had a great game, as did Colin who got most Christlike for passing the ball instead of shooting when the game was on the line, they tied.
Got to ref four games, and got to share at halftime of a game, I hope next year more people from the Church get involved. Sunday Jeff Salyer was in Canada, and we missed him, however Billy Andrews taught connect group and did a great job, he would make a great teacher of His own class, if God so leads. Sunday night was awesome, I am thankful for such a Godly man leading the Church here in Heath, what an inspiring message about confession.

WHAT A GREAT WEEKEND!

What fun Friday night was, the men whipped the women in battle of the sexes, naturally. Great
fellowship and food, and lots of laughs. What a priveldge to share time with such great christian people. Then another full day of upwards basketball, Colins team tied and I think he had about 10 points, Austins game was cancelled due to a schedule snafu, I love my kids and love to watch them compete athletically, but, what parent doesn't. Another great youth worker fellowship Saturday, more food, friends and fellowship. Thought I would update since Sam was complaining, although he hasn't updated in two weeks now.
