Faith-Stories.com Blog

I think for the very first posting I won’t get too long winded.  As I sit here and type, I hear birds chirping and eating from my feeder on our deck.  We finally have full sunshine and it’s nice and warm (almost 70). My herbs are looking nice and green.  We have parsley, garlic and onion chives, thyme and some lavender (I think that last nip of cold got ‘um).  I had a brief moment this morning to fertilize the lawn, then we both played with the kids (picture below).  The house is now empty as Betsy went to hit the gym (taking the kids) as I have lots of laundry to do before going back outside. 

THIS IS THE LIFE!  NO WORKING WEEKENDS FOR A CAREER.  For eight plus years who knew what real life was about.  God blessed me to get out of my former career and put me in this position. HE knew as well as we that a change had to be made because our kids were missing daddy and I them.  So we kept praying about it.  My own free will could have had me go other places, but when you hear his calling you better answer.  People ask me all the time do I miss doing the weather on TV.  I say “No not really”.  I miss some of the people, but not the hours and all the filling in for other shifts, while my kids had an absent father. I think Betsy missed me too :-)   I still follow the weather, but not as much.  I look to do some storm chasing this year, but at $3.45 per gallon (or $4.oo by Monday) maybe I’ll keep our 98′ Escort in the garage.  If anything weather related opens my eye I will post it.

In closing, I look at the blessings in my life daily with newly opened eyes.   I look back and reflect on all the Faith-Stores we have done and how each one has changed me.  It’s been fun learning how God touches peoples hearts and how HE can get you through anything!  Also, how the Bible is still such a useful learning tool in real life situations.  I look back and forward to all the growing that is ahead, spiritually, career wise, family wise and who knows what else.  I would like to thank all of you who have been watching the stories as we help spread HIS word.  We also would like to thank those individuals and businesses that financially support the radio and Internet ministry.

Make everyday count! I have a tough decision to make…WHAT to put on the grill for dinner

THIS IS PRICELESS!

As I sat in front of the computer waiting for God to inspire this next posting, Ken suggested three to four topics to write about.  While I told him they were all good ideas, they just didn’t “move” me.  He continued on with his explanation as to what would be nice to write about.  That’s when I reminded him that he is just as much a part of this ministry as I am thus, he should start posting on this blog.  And with that said, Ken will now be putting posts on this page, as well.

We are closing in on a thousand views since posting this link on our site and it’s only been available for less than two months, at this point.  Please feel free to give us your comments and/or prayer requests through this site.

Blessings~
