Finally, October is OVER!

The month of October has been a crazy month for me. It started off with me being in the Hospital for a weekend. I has gotten Colitis (an inflamed colon) and had put off going to checked out for an entire month until I was so weak I couldn't work. I had lost 30 Lb. in one month (not of my choosing) and had absolutely no energy and no strength. After my stay in the hospital I went back to work, where my employers were very understanding about me needing to take breaks to rest (usually just a 5 min. break to catch my breath). After one week I was feeling well enough to try playing some basketball, but that was an unusual experience for me because my coordination was off and my arm strength was not back yet, and so my shooting and running even may have looked a little like a the way a girl would run and shoot (I'm now back to full strength and coordination). Work has been an adventure in and of itself. While one job (CFA) is going very well, and I'm improving in my ability there almost every shift, my other job (TFM) is heading for disaster (not me specifically, I'll be fine, but the deli in general) The Quality of our product is still the same as it has always been, but the availability and speed in delivering that product will be lacking this year due to managerial incompetence. This could cause me to be very stressed, but God has allowed me to simply do my job and not worry about things that I can't fix. I'm back to full strength, in good spirits, walking closely to my God and ever so busy with work, church, and life in general. So that was my October, (there were other things to but those things shall not be revealed) How was yours?

Women Pastors and the SBC

Image
Recently the SBC (Southern Baptist Convention) has made a stand that they believe is based on Biblical standards about women pastors.  There are many complicated aspects to this issue, some biblical and some non biblical.  First of all let’s see what the Bible says.  In 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1 Paul instructs his protégés on the qualifications for pastors.  The word Pastor can be interchanged with other terms but I will use the word Pastor because it is what we in the American church use to reference the leader of the church.  The first qualification is that the leader must be the husband of one wife.  This implies that this person is an adult male who is married.  I believe that both aspects of this are important for the leader of a church who is composed of families.  God had created men to be the leaders in the home and in society.  It is a natural position for men and it is designed by God that way on purpose.  Today people focus on the person being a male but I believe that him bei

God gave me a Girlfriend for Christmas!!!

Image
The search for a Girlfriend began as soon as I started college in 2006. I wasn't however looking for a girlfriend just to have a girlfriend. I was looking for the girl God wanted me to marry, so I wasn't going to be casual about finding the right girl. Over the past five years I've show interest in several girls and always God shut the door. Until I met Sarah Ann Ekberg!  Our story is long so sit back, get comfortable as I share how God has worked in our lives. This is not going to be the complete version as that would be the start of a novel! If you have any questions feel free to comment, but please keep the comments on the blog and not on facebook so that we can keep all the comments in one place.    Sarah and I were in school together in the spring of 2007 at Bob Jones University. We took New Testament Messages together with Nathan Crockett, but I don't remember seeing her. (the class had over 400 students in each session) although she vaguely remembers seeing

A Promise of Love

 What happens when two people fall in love and they know they are going to get married and yet marriage is still over a year away? It's to early for engagement cause you just started dating less than two months ago and yet you want to make this permanent.  What can someone in this situation do?   This was the situation Sarah and I found ourselves in not to long ago.  If you've been here before you know that Sarah and I started courting on Christmas day.  We both entered this relationship certain that we were meant for each other.  That confidence has never wavered even once! We also wanted to make sure the Lord remained at the forefront of our relationship.  Once we officially became boyfriend/girlfriend our relationship took off!  We couldn't wait to see each other (we still can't but we can control ourselves a little better now) and each and every time we were together became more and more special.  I knew that we were going to need something more than sheer will powe
