Exciting times!
Next Saturday I have been granted permission to hand out samples of some of the products I sell at a city race. I am working with a marketing firm and have received tons of support from corporate and some of the other people that also sell the products. I think this is going to ramp up my business to another level.
The timing of all of this has been amazing. I found this opportunity when I wasn't looking for it but needed it the most. I had just gotten surgery on my gun hand, which meant hours were going to be cut back and I couldn't work any extra jobs. AdvoCare (The company) has more than met our needs... actually God has through that avenue. I think of:

Matt 6
25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Seek Him, He knows your needs, and will provide. Time and again God has shown me this thank you!
With my hand continuing to hinder my current job, AdvoCare looks to be a very viable option.
If you are in debt (Time or money) talk to me about this.

Big Daddy Weave - Every Time I Breathe (Video)

I am sure all of heaven's heard me cry
As I tell You all the reasons why
This life is just too hard

But day by day
Without fail
I'm finding everything I need
And everything that You are
To me

Chorus:
Every time I breathe You seem a little bit closer
I never want to leave
I want to stay in Your warm embrace
Oh basking in the glory shining from Your face
And every time I get another glimpse of Your heart
I realize it's true
That You are so marvelous God
And I am so in love with You

Now how could I after knowing One so great
Respond to You in any way
That's less than all I have to give
But by Your grace I want to love You not with what
I say
But everyday
In a way that my life is lived

Chorus:
Every time I breathe You seem a little bit closer
I never want to leave
I want to stay in Your warm embrace
Oh basking in the glory shining from Your face
And every time I get another glimpse of Your heart
I realize it's true
That You are so marvelous God
And I am so in love with You

Wrapped in Your mercy I want to live and never leave
I am held by how humble
Yet overwhelmed by Your majesty
Captured by grace and now I'm finding
I am free
You are marvelous God
And knowing You is everything

Are you still?

Powerful song with powerful lyrics.
I love forgiveness.

COWBOY MOUTH - This Much Fun

Read absolutely nothing into this! I just love this band.

The Fray - How to Save a Life (new music video version)

Be a super hero!
Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
[How To Save A Life Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com]
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life

Pray for Me
Hey y'all (southern thing), I have to make a decision soon about what I should do with my hand and it could do to my career. I don't want to dwell on it but I could use your prayers.
On the lighter side, I got to see my family this past weekend and we had a great time. Tamara will get a chance next month to head to California, which she is excited about. She will get to return to her home and visit dear friends and family.
Many thanks to my good friend Dale who is an encouragement in the smallest things.

Anybody there?
It's very possible that in this vastness that is the world wide web I am wandering alone in the desert.
Enough for my self pity.
Cayden is crawling like a little spider-monkey, Makenna is as cute (and dramatic) as ever. My wife is still out of my league and my wrist is still in recovery. We are starting to make some profit from the little side-action business we got going and we are about to launch a marketing campaign to really hit it.
God is good, he reminds me of His control daily in my frustration, and re-adjusts my myopic point of view. I miss my friends and can't wait for the next re-union. Speaking of which my family is getting together this weekend for the yearly meeting of us all (didn't want to be redundant and say re-union again). So that should be fun.
To whoever is out there in the desert with me, thanks for reading!
