So many things...

Sometimes I have so many things that I want to blog about that I end up clogging my brain! I want to talk about MC, JourneyKIDS, my family, my own lessons from God... my life. But there is so much! Lets see....

Sunday I had a big pot luck at my house for all our elementary and preschool team leaders. It was awesome! We ate a whole bunch of food and my team kicked some tail in Cranium! I wanted to have it because I need my team leaders to understand the impact they are making. JourneyKIDS has grown for the past 2 months... and I accredit it to our leaders. They have really stepped up, taken ownership, and have helped us elevate the entire ministry to a whole other level. They are super awesome and I want to make sure they feel appreciated and loved.

My family is doing great! My brother Joe and his wife Nellie are loving it here which just makes my heart so glad. Ricky, Nellie's cousin, is really liking it to. He is working hard on getting some goals accomplished. He is doing a great job! I just want to thank all of you who have made them feel so welcomed. It has truly overwhelmed them. Thank you. My Mom and Dad are preparing to purchase a beautiful house on wildhorse mountain. I'm ready for them to be here. It is driving all of us crazy with anticipation.

MC is going great! God is charging us with new passion and desperation as we head through the final stretch of our school year. We will be graduating on June 3rd. We already have 5 students for next year and more to come. Be praying for these students as God directs them in which way to go and what their next step is.

Personally, God is continually teaching me through His Word and life experiences. I had to learn the hard way the other day when I ignored the Holy Spirit. Because of that, I drove all the way to duncan to pick up a new piece of furniture and ended up coming back empty handed. It reminded me to never allow the Holy Spirits voice to be numbed in my life. I always want to be sensitive to it. My wife said, "well, its just another opportunity to know what the Holy Spirit sounds like". In the realization of that I have been asking the Lord to keep me sensitive to Him. I want to stay desperate for Him, understanding that without Him I could really screw things up. Keep me humble Lord and broken. I want to offer myself as such instead of you doing it for me. Keep pride out and selfishness and help me to desperately seek you in every decision I make. We need Him in every choice we make. I challenge you to focus on hearing His voice this week. He speaks in different ways and if you ask Him, He'll teach you.
