It's about time... God has led us to Cairo Egypt ... almost 1 year ago, and just now I'm getting around to creating a blog. Amazing. I've wanted to set up a blog... and I've got a few blogs from friends that I check out pretty regularly... and blogs are cool and all ... for "other people" ... but me have a blog?? Oh, now that's different. Of course, that's what we all say... but hey... it's about time I got off my lazy fingers and set up a site huh? :)
How will it go? I'm not really sure... will I be committed to updating it? For sure once in a while... but I hope at least weekly... if not a little more often than that... because otherwise, what's the use right? :-) I know for friends and family it might be useful to check what's happening in our lives this way ... and so when we've emailed and forgot to mention something... well, hopefully you'll see the additional info here.
Kind ah like I mentioned, we've been in Egypt for almost a year now, and God has been so very faithful in settling us into an area that has such wonderfully strong believes ... we're just so very thankful for all God knew He was doing in bringing us here.
Well, as God leads let, us all be sure to follow because He doesn't call us off the path where He won't be there... the road may be "less traveled" but in today's world... where is "less traveled"? The bottom line though is He'll be where ever He is telling us to go...
Reading here in the last few days and God really impressed on my heart this verse out of Jeremiah 17 and verse 14 "Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise." Wow... that's awesome. He is our healer and our savior... and all we can do is live a life that daily praises Him!
As this work begins, I have to acknowledge a few fellas that inspire me to even jot anything here, Mark... and your blog... well done Mate, my pastor back home, Joe Paskewich and the work you're doing there in Uncassville along with your own blog... God is really using you and it's so great to see a man of God like you!! Mike... for being a "Manly man!" and Tobbs... well... just for being the gentle giant you are in the Lord... and honestly... it's a combination of the men's group here that I attend and the one from back home in Uncassville Ct (Damien, Keith, Walt, Chuck, Mike, Dennis, Chris, Bobby, Wally, Josh, and Gary) that I have to thank God for putting Godly men in my life to ... keep me straight...
Ok all... for the opening posting I'd love to have some profound saying... or lofty goal that this will lead us all towards... and in a way even without my own knowing, God can use this for His good... and that goal... in spite of me being the one posting stuff here... but as for me... I don't have concrete goals besides a desire to see everyone that reads these posting that don't know Jesus as their Lord and Savior to have the chance to come to the knowledge of who the Lord is and to accept Him as their Lord and Savior.
Blessing to All

Trent, how did you do that? Nice job. I'm currently re-reading Sacred Romance. The jest of it is that God calls us into a paradigm breaking, parameterless relationship with Him in where he does the steering. He is both healer and wounder citing Job, Jacob and some others. Seems like he wounds or allows wounding at times and I guess is waiting there for us as binder/healer of the wounds. I guess he'll be where he invites us........as you say.
Take care Bro. God bless you and your family
yo dude what's up ? God has been chippin' away at me . he has promised to restore the years the locusts have eaten ! (joel 2:25)i'm excited at what he'll do next.God bless you !! k.
Dennis,
Sounds like an interesting book... "He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful." John 15:2... I guess it's better to be pruned than to be cut off that's for sure! Great to hear from you D.
Murph,
Dude... God is the great healer of all we (yes me too) mess up... but just as you said... went we've come before Him... and repent... He's the Great restorer of what the enemy stole! Blessing Always Bro.
