If we can listen to God and follow Him, He will open the doors that will allow us to walk into His Presence and His Will. It was a hard decision to drive away from AL knowing I had a precious little boy and a beautiful woman that loves me dearly. Following God will sometimes cause you pain but He knows what He is doing. I know He has a plan for me, Terrie, and Noah but this time i'm waiting on Him to show me what He wants me to do. During the last few months of 2007, I mentally broke down and made decisions based on what I was feeling instead of what God wanted. God loves me, forgave me and has been patient with me. I am determined to know His Will and to do that, I know I have to stay in His presence. A preacher once told me how to find God's Will. He said that we are not to search for His Will but to search for God. If we can find God and stay close to Him, God will reveal His Will to us. I have enjoyed being a parent as much as anything i have ever done. Noah will be 11 months old tomorrow and i talk to Him everyday. I will be going to see him next week and i can hardly wait. We've got a bunch of wrestling matches to catch up on and i know we are going to be glued together while i'm there. Let me tell ya how good God is... a man who saw one of the yards i cut asked for my name. i later called him and he said he is retiring from mowing grass and wanted to know if i was interested in several of his accounts??? WOW! i don't know what God has for me, but for know, He's opened the door for me to work outside and i'm enjoying it.When i wake up in the mornings, i grab my water bottle and try to replenish my water supply. then i wash my face and brush my teeth. after a set or two of pushups, i slip on my running shoes and head out the door for a walk/jog around the block 1 or 2 times depending on how it feels. when it feels good, i just keep on running ;-) (Forrest Gump) anyways, after my run, i cook up a good breakfast (usually make scattered hash browns, eggs with hot peppers, topped with cheese and real sliced turkey (not the sodium saturated packaged kind). i sit at my table looking at pictures of Noah & Terrie while i eat my breakfast. after eating i open up the freezer at take out my cold glass and fill it with orange juice (oh yeah, it's goood!) then i clean up my dishes and take my vitamins.
