Yay! A New Post

Today I went out into the woods and built myself a little fire to help focus my thoughts in preparation for time with only God and his creation. While I was looking for my old spot God gave me a couple of nice gifts. The first one was a two point buck skull, a bit later a came upon a tree in full blossom, which was just beautiful out in the middle of a pine forest and I even found a softball from last year, home run for the win. I never did find my old spot because the forest has changed so much, but I finally found a nice place to sit and make the fire under some trees. After the fire was going I got my Bible out and just opened it up and started read some random page. But the wind was blow at just the right angle to flip the pages like a person would, so it was like God was right there show me some specific verses, because he would stop on a page long enough for me to read and then move on to another page, it was really neat. The book of Colossians and Romans 8:6-8 really spoke to me. I really enjoyed my time outside in the quiet with just nature sounds around me and the crackle of the fire. God is good.

Yesterday Allan, Erin and I went to visit Caleb and Lindsey. Caleb had gotten some massive, like 20oz size, steaks to cook for dinner. So the guys were outside around the charcoal grill cooking the steaks, while the girls were inside chatting and getting the rest of the food ready. Caleb and never had cooked steak on a grill be for so I was giving some advice on that while Allan kept the fire from getting to hot, because the streak had gotten put on to early. Oh man was the steak good. We also had mashed potatoes and spinach and carrot salad, mmm tasty. After dinner we played apples to apples for awhile and before we left we had a little devo with singing, a verse and a prayer. On our way back we got caught in a speed trap, because Allan's, speed odometer is broken, but got no ticket. The best part though was as the cop was looking at Allan's stuff his cell phone rang and it was the theme song to Cops, lol. Anyway after that nothing eventful happend. It was a really good time and was great to see them. Spring break is going great so far. ~Semper Fi
