catching up

This past weekend was extremely busy, probably could have guess that being I haven't posted anything since Friday night. Early Saturday morning we woke up and drove to Tennessee to pick up the niece and nephews. What a trip, turns out I-40 was closed and we had to take a detour through the mountains twisty twisty is all we did. Well we finally got there and had a great lunch with the family and took off and headed back home. Twisty twisty once again,then after three stops at Mcdonalds and one pizza place we were finally home. The trip that was supposed to take half my day had taken my whole day. It was all good though.
I heard my first sermon yesterday on being overweight and gluttonous appetites. I have to say it was convicting and definitely made me want to get in better shape. Its great to know that the pastor was willing to preach on something that effects everyone. I committed yesterday that I would make this year a better year of getting in shape.
In my studying over the past few days Ive been seeing how horrible we really are. As humans there is nothing we can do to save ourselves and that is why Jesus had to come and take care of the debt couldn't. In Matthew I read about Jesus sending the disciples out to preach to all of Jerusalem and the surrounding areas. In a way they were first legit missionaries. We need to make sure that we are living in a way that glorifies God. We deserve Hell but through Christ we can have Heaven.

Verse of the day- 1 Corinthians 10:31 So whatever you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God.
