My team already lost!

I am kind of in shock. Ga. Tech showed promise toward the end of the season but lost the first game in both the ACC tournament and the NCAA tournament. I even prayed! I did but I know people are praying on both sides. Part of not being a fair weathered fan is supporting them regardless. You know it kind of goes a long the same lines of our relationships with God. Whether life is going our way or not we still need to keep our faith in God. The difference between sports and God is that we know one day he will have the victory forever. This is just what was on my mind today. If you are not a sports person, I am talking about college basketball. Be praying for my wife cause she is having a tough time working night shift. She wants to go to days and we need prayer for that to happen. Well, thanks for reading. Later.
In Him,

My Stupid Mouth...

I figured this title would catch your attention. I was heading up to the mountains last Friday to snowboard with my wife for the day (she was already up there for a couple of days with some friends). Anyway, on the way up I was listening to my ipod and the song "My Stupid Mouth" came on by John Mayer. There is a lot of spiritual truth to the title and the song whether he meant there to be or not. Honestly, this is one of my struggles. I am a very opinionated person who can talk a lot and my mouth can get me in trouble. This is an area I want to improve on in my life. I want to be a better listener and I want to think about what I say before I let words fly. The bible is clear that we are to be slow to speak and quick to listen. As I have mentioned before I want to be a pastor one day and I have to improve this area to be the kind of pastor God would want me to be. All prayers are welcomed and appreciated. Well, thanks for checking in on my blog and I hope and pray all is well with you. I hope to write again soon so check back. Later.

Update:

Well, I have a test and a midterm due next weekend for seminary so I am taking a study break to write a little update. I needed to unwind before diving into a deeper study mode, so I went snowboarding with a friend yesterday. The wind was rough so we left early. It's all good though, because the conditions out here in Colorado are usually pretty awesome. I love hitting the mountains out here because the view from the top is always breathtaking. It is a constant reminder of how awesome and huge God is! On another note, I saw on Seth's blog today a link to what is currently going on in South Florida. This is extremely disturbing. Check out the story here. I hope to write more soon. Later.
