That's so Random

No it's not so random, so people should stop saying that. However, I will use the term appropriately with my 'random' thoughts:

-Summer vacation for at least three weeks without serious work hours is something everyone should get and do no matter what their profession. Stress in the world would cease to exist, and there would be no such thing as road rage.

-I love my wife and my family. Spending time (as mentioned above) with them leads me to the reminder that I have the greatest life in the world and the greatest wife and the greatest children. Cedar Point, bro's house, butt tree's, soak city, the maples hotel, the motel 6, hog heaven, the amway grand, the terrace motel and the beauty of a wedding and dancing with my daughters and wife. Life is grand and I love them.

-I have the greatest job in the world, and I am convinced it is a gift from God because I trusted Him with everything. I am so thankful that I love what I do, the people I work with, and the people I get to meet.

-New and interesting relationships are intriguing to me. What will come of a discussion with my high school teacher's son that now works with the same company? Why did I sit on a bus with jb last week and encourage her to pray for someone she struggles with? What do I need to do with all of these new relationships to honor Him?

-In less than a week, I will finally be 'settling' in Brooklyn with my family, and I mean for permanent and for serious.

-Laughter makes my soul encouraged.

-Life without an Ipod sucks after you get used to life with an Ipod.

-I love Jesus.

Such a fantastic God to give great gifts to his children. The sunshine on Saturday was perfect. The rainy morning was relaxing too.
We built some memories! Real glad my dad didn't flip back in that chair. Super happy the slots were in my favor. Excellent choice in motels you sure know how to pick em! Pickel Head

Too, Too, Too Much Fun

Alright. So you're sitting in front of your computer right now. And you're saying to yourself at about 8:00 pm: "Huh. It's been dark out for nearly three and a half hours now. What else can we do for fun?" Well, sir, we have the answer. Take a look at this.

Righteous or Unrighteous?

Today, as I thoroughly enjoyed my walk to the school, I pondered quite a few things, as I often do on my walk. Sometimes I pray for people like Hammy, Jimmer, sick pete, mg, cdubs, pastor, beary, and the like. But today, I simply reveled in the fact that God loves me. As I watched the snow melting away, I could see the dirt and garbage left behind throughout my walk. I think of how God melts away our dirt and our garbage. How he longs to be in relationship with us, and how he cleanses our sins from existence. As the sun rose, I couldn't help but think of the verse I read this morning in Matthew 5:45 - "...that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." I pondered if Jesus was walking with me, which of the above categories would HE put me in? I'm pretty sure the unrighteous one at times. But yet he still walks with me and leads my steps. He brings the heat ...

Casa de Kelly - a nice place to dine.

It has been a challenging week for me personally. Struggling with some things personal in nature, nothing that I need to go into, but just working hard to keep my chin up. But encouragement comes to me through others that follow God. Thanks to sick Pete for his encouragement to me this week. Thanks to BK for his prayers and vulnerability. But my biggest thanks goes out to the kkft. After a tough week, I got an email yesterday from superstar saying she was hoping to take me out to dinner for drinks, conversation, and even dessert. But no sitter. So her and the girls were working on 'casa de kelly' restaurant in our apartment. I am almost certain it was the best restaurant I have ever visited in my life. Candlelight, mexican food and latin music, time to sit and chat with my wife, the girls serving us and giving us privacy (even had the taboo buzzer to call them when we needed something :)), it was my best night of the year by far. But perhaps the biggest part of the n...
