Hey this is really not a post just an announcement.  I have added a new poll and would really like everyone’s input.  Just check it out.  Remember it is anonymous. 

Who would have thought that the refrigerator where you keep your physical sustenance would also be a place to provide spiritual sustenance?    If you remember I commented in a previous blog that Krystal had put a scripture up on the refrigerator so that she could memorize it and it really spoke to me and made me evaluate so things and how I was doing them.  Well, she did it to me again and this time it was at a time when I really needed it. Go Figure!! God knew what I needed and provided it…interesting concept.

James 1:5 (New American Standard Bible)

 5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

If you can imagine you have a bad day and then walk up to the refrigerator to get something and you read this and it hits you like a cinderblock, and yesterday for me was a day when a point was reached that a line of demarcation had to be drawn.  I have been pushing hard to make a lot of things happen and I reached a point where I no longer could use my wisdom to try to solve everything.  I needed to call upon my Heavenly Father to come and provide me with the wisdom.  And as always He responded and pointed out the things that need to change, and as always it is painful because (for you ladies) as men we don’t normally change until the pain of not changing is worse than the pain from the change.  So I urge you all to ask God for the wisdom rather than pull a Tyler and rely on your own wisdom until it exhausts itself and then call upon God.  This is a much more painful way to live.  So my prayer for myself and you is that we will do nothing but rely on God’s wisdom and His direction.  I pray that we all will have the “Paul like” courage to go and do the things that we know God has called us to do, even though we know it is going to lead to persecution or pain.  And finally post more scripture on your refrigerator so that you can get feed in 2 ways every time you go to the frig.  ;o)

God Bless ~ Tyler
