God answers Prayer

I feel overwhelmed right now with what God is doing in my life. Carrie got a job today... she got the call back from KinderCare and starts today! Its a great opportunity, close to home and will help us alot. We also got some great news from Texas regarding the kids as we found a really good Christian lawyer that is going to help us out, and things look to be moving quickly. Keep praying for us and thank you for all that have been praying... we are so blessed

Comfort

Those of you that are close to me know that me and my family have been going through some trials... really difficult trials. I have to say that in everything we have gone through, I am so comforted by knowing that God is working in my life and teaching me things. I have never been closer to God, I have never been in his word more and I have never felt more joy and comfort than I am feeling now. I know God is working in my life and I know that he is going to resolve the situation quickly.  My prayer tonight is for you... for all of you who have been praying for us. I pray that God will bless you beyond measure. I pray that God will move in your life and create blessings that will overflow in your life because I have been so overwhelmed with the voices of people that are praying for me.  I pray especially for Lynn, for the comfort and the friendship that I have been given, and also for Phil and Sara, I don't know if these people realize how special they are to me.  I never knew so many people cared about me and my family and I am so thankful for all the friends I have. God has truly blessed my life.

Psalm 70 - My Prayer for the day

Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O Lord. Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt. Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha. Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified. But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thous art my help and my deliverer; O Lord, make no tarrying

Colorado State Fair

Well we decided Saturday to visit the State Fair of Colorado. We have always gone to the State Fair of Texas and always had a blast. It was a drive down to Pueblo, but a fun one. We got to the fair around 1pm and stayed until around 7pm but we immediatly noticed a considerable size difference in this fair. Much smaller!!! I guess everything is BIGGER in TEXAS! Overall it was a fun day for us, a chance to get away from everyday life and enjoy some local music and great fair food. Corn Dogs, Funnel Cake and my personal favorite, "Chicken on a stick." This Chicken was excellent but the Corn Dogs were not the same as Texas. Weirdest food had to be either "Pork Chop on a Stick" or "Fried Twinkie's." (Not brave enough to try those) We spent the whole day there enjoying the Lumberjack show, watching some Sea Lions for part of their act, and generally just having fun and enjoying the fair atmosphere. Overall it was a great time and Carrie and I both agreed that we would definently go back next year just for the food and the environment.
