Football Season!

What I've learned in the past two days. The last blog I talked about opening my eyes and seeing God today and spending time with Him. The next night I read in Isaiah 1:18 that "though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool. If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best from the land; but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken." If that doesn't make ya nervous I don't know what else will. It is amazing what happens when I am obedient and stay in God's word. What is so cool about God's word is it meets us where we are. Wherever we are in life, that's where the bible meets us and that's exactly where God meets us too. At church today we sang Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus, and after singing that hymn, we just kept singing open my eyes. What the heck? I guess its good to go to church and always feel like God is talking to you. So, in the past few days I've learned how forgiving God is to me and my selfish ways. I've learned that if I don't live for today, in the present, I might miss something Big. I've learned that it doesn't matter how long its been or how far away from God I feel, He is always there and he welcomes my praise, prayers, worries, and worship at any time. 

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

I also learned that Tech football needs to not get so many penalties in one football game, and I am so excited about football season this year. I hope everyone had a good first week and is having a good labor day weekend. I love getting comments from you guys and reading your new posts. I want to know what you've learned or what God is teaching you. So when you get a chance let me know. Miss you guys. Oh and p.s. Missy was at the Tech game yesterday and Dan was with her. I approve 100% so no worries. He's a great guy. Oh and we felt bad for the Aggies, a little bit anyway. 

Schro, hope Austin is good! 

Bick...what do you want for your birthday?

Shayla, post something new.

Erin, I miss New York and I hope you are feeling better!
