Day 129/Day 2

As I sit back, thinking what to write, I can see the full moon through the window. I was thinking about the moon earlier today as I read Genesis. I read about God putting two lights in the sky: one for the day and one for the night. I thought "The moon isn't a light." It's light comes from the other light. I'm not so much snagged on the particulars; I just wonder what exactly was meant when that was written. The Day 2 is for dedication and discipline. Along with trying to create a blog every day, I'd like to do other things as well, including reading the bible. I hope that and other things go well. I want to be me, but I want to be a better me. God, wife and kids will do that for you.

Gabrielle layed in my lap today. That's always sweet how she gets on my lap and curls up. We had some Christian music blaring and Gabrielle, Kim and I were singing to it (kinda low, like we weren't sure of the words) while Colton acted like a goofball to get Noah to giggle almost uncontrollably. It was some nice family time as we had just finished up an American meal of tacos and mac and cheese.

I thought on the way home of how Kim and I are soooooo lucky to still both have jobs. The economy is getting pretty bad and I listened on the radio as they talked about how it probably wouldn't get any better until our housing problem hits rock bottom and prices stabilize. Thank you, Lord for enabling us to have jobs and not have our house destroyed by hurricanes as so many others have. If you're reading this, please take a moment and pray for those people that have lost loved ones or anything else during these last couple storms. Pray for the people at church that have people close to them that have been in bad car accidents, had heart problems, lost a loved one in Iraq, have a baby with leukemia or any of the many others that have cancer or are in harms' way. If you get a second, pray for me too. I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Love,
Me.
