VACATION BLOG April 27, 2011

My Spring Break Family Vacation was very rewarding. We bonded as a family. We shared great experiences. We created memorable moments. We experienced God’s blessings and rejoiced in His faithfulness for keeping us safe. I believe that everyone benefits when we spend time away from everyday busyness. In return, we exchange them for restful and fun times. We come back energized and refocused.
We reconnected with each other when we did things together. We enjoyed meals together. We enjoyed walking together. We enjoyed talking together. We saw and experienced new things. We saw and reflected on the things we did in the past. We saw many exhibits that my dad was a part of. We saw sights that he could have told us more about.
My mother enjoyed spending time with her son, daughter-in-law, and her grandson. We felt our family grow together in a way it never had before. We experienced life together in a new and refreshing way.
Hopefully, we’ll continue to spend vacations together. We thank God that we were able to go away last week, and look forward to doing so in the future.

HAVE YOU BEEN POISONED?

How you can tell when you’ve been poisoned . Your actions and attitudes are toxic ! Toxic thoughts lead to toxic actions. Toxic thinking poisons others around us. Eventually toxic thinking leads to death (dreams). Watch out that the toxics around you don’t get inside you . How do you counteract toxicity? Speaking, thinking and acting positive activates life in you, around you, and gives life (energy) to others.

My experience at PODD for Men’s Fellowship

Being at the PODD felt like being at home, but I’m all grown up now . Don’t get me wrong. I loved the praise and worship music team. They really brought us into the presence of God. I loved rejoining with my brothers in Christ. It was good greeting my former pastor and friend. It’s felt good remembering all of the good times, and the not so good times we had there. But I’m not supposed to remain there. Now I belong to a new church, and a new body of believers. Eventually, I had to leave for my new home , and be with my new family .

Dealing with marital differences

I find the more I talk to people, the more they tell me the number one thing that is frustrating them in marriage, they don’t understand their spouse . Men don’t understand women, women don’t understand men. Being around women most of the time has given me some insight on how they think, how they feel, and how they react to situations. Guess what guys? God made them different from us. But thank God, He gives us the blueprint to help us, the Bible. My suggestion is this: Whenever you feel really frustrated or anxious about your wife’s behavior and her attitude, take your Bible and go into your prayer closet. Pray this prayer, “Father God, please change ME to deal with my wife in a way that honors you”. Right now, I probably lost 99% of you with that prayer. I know you would rather be like James and John and ask the Lord to rain down fire on your wife’s head. Maybe then she would submit herself to your leadership. But trust me on this. If you are truly seeking God’s will for your life, y...
