Happy Thanksgiving

Just wanted to wish everyone the Happiest of Thanksgiving Holidays!

Thankful

    I am so thankful for many things in my life. I have a great job, a nice home, and many friends that I care and love. I also have a God who is there no matter what. A God that has seen me screw up as many time as I have pleased him. A God who is always there to pick me up and help me along the way to my next goal. I know I am not perfect and I know that I will always make mistakes, but I am thankful for that second chance.

10 things I have learned this year

So many times I have read on people's blogs, 10 things to change your life, 10 things to help you lose weight, or 10 things to improve your sex life. Taking a step back I feel that in order to progress in life we must realize what has made us into who we are. I can say without joking and in all seriousness, that 2008 has been one of the most trying yet rewarding in my 26 years of existence. Many of you know what I have been through and I have got to say that without good friends and my faith in God I would not have made it. With that being said here are 10 things I have learned this year, enjoy. 1.) Sometimes those who you love the most can hurt you the worst. 2.) You are stronger than you could ever imagine if you trust in yourself. 3.) Friends are sometimes the only crutch you have to lean on. 4.) Family is always there for you no matter what. 5.) God is bigger than anything you can ever imagine. 6.) Depression is real and can control your life. 7.) Counseling is good for you and although I used to make fun of it, it helped me alot. 8.) Love can hurt worse than any physical pain. 9.) Music helps me deal with my pain. 10.) Let new people into your life, sometimes they love you more than old friends.

Season Of Change

     The following was written by one of my friends from college Rashad Reed. With his permission I am going to repost his thoughts on the election. I find it eye opening as well as heart warming. Read, share, enjoy what he has to say!

"After what I witnessed last night I see that as a country we have come a very long way in looking past race to nominate the best candidate. I also witnessed that we still have a long way to go in bringing this country together. Personally, this presidential race was never about black vs white. It was candidate vs candidate. Senator McCain is an American hero who I have much respect for. Other than the "that one" remark I never had an issue with Senator McCain. If he had been elected as our 44th President I know, even though I would have been a little disappointed I would have been on board to see what plans he had to help turn our struggling economy around and help restore jobs to the thousands that have been laid-off over the past year. But to see people compare President-Elect Barrack Obama to Hitler or condemn him for his name shows pure ignorance. If we judged people solely on their names, then my full legal name would make me a Muslim or Terrorist according to some. I know im rambling and some will utter what is this guy talking about. This is my 2 cents on what Ive seen and heard over the last month...Being a black man and hearing the horror stories from my mother, father, aunts, and uncles as they grew up the struggles they dealt with being black, it made me even prouder of what was happening right before my eyes. None of them never thought that day "a season of change" would ever take place. But after 11pm eastern time last night to get a phone call from my father who is failing in health to get a call from a crying mother it meant so much more in my eyes to them. They saw racism everyday, they lived it, my mother chased out of her hometown in Georgia by the KKK, not being able to attend college back home. It makes me proud to say that I am a part of American History a part of Black American History and that one day when my son or grandson tells me they want to be the President of the United States I can look them in the eyes and say to them Yes You Can. God Bless America!!"

Happy Halloween

Help my friends in Showbread

This morning we woke up to find our van and trailer had been stolen from in front of our friend's house in Rancho Cordova, California.

Everything we have in the world is in that van and trailer. Every piece of equipment, every piece of luggage, all our money…. Everything.

If you are anywhere in California or near the Rancho Cordova/Sacramento area please be on the look-out for a 15-passenger Ford van with Georgia plates and a black double axel trailer with missing fenders and stripes of reflective tape across the black door, please call the police and report it.

We are thousands of miles from home, in the middle of tour and everything we have is gone with no way to get home.

Please pray for us, we know that Christ will provide for us and it is well with out souls. Praise Jesus for times of trials! Our faith is hard as rock.
