Thankful

We are only 6 day's away from entering into my favorite time of the year. I have been thinking the last few weeks, about what the Lord has done for me. When I look back over my 23 years, there are a number of things that just stick out, that the Lord has done for me and then there are the "little things" he has done that sometimes we over look. Some of the "little things" Lord, thank you for wakening me up today, letting me take another breath, being able to walk, talk, see, hear. Having clothes to wear, a house to sleep in, food to eat, a loving family, friends. Thank you for a wonderful job, and a group of students that love you and have a passion for you.

I'm thankful for the my savior who died for me, so I could live. God never ceases to amaze me. There's even the things he keep me safe from that I don't even know about. I love the Lord with all my heart. I'm so blessed and thankful, that my savior loves me to call me His own!

Have a happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Blessings,

Scott

Re-painted

So I have been Youth Pastor at the Worship Center for a year this week! It's been a good year. More up's than downs! We have had growth. When I started we had under 10, and over the last year have climbed to 30! Praise God! I'm excited to see where God is going to take us this year!

When I moved into my office I painted it dark blue/purple, I liked it but it just was too dark for me so last night after prayer I decided to re paint my office! It took me till 5am, but I got it all done! 3 of the walls are Beige, and the main wall is purple! I love it. It looks professional, which is what I'am...professional....ha ha.

I really like change. I used to hate it, but live and learn.

L...O...N...G..........Day

Last night was our youth lock-in. It was a lot of fun! We had 31 students! Most everyone stayed up till about 3am. Then we watched a movie and most were out!

Got home this morning about 8:45am, then slept till 3!! I'm so wore out, but it was worth it. Also got a surprise last night when my best friend Marc showed up at the church. They are visiting from Ohio. Should be a good day tomorrow.

On my mind....

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8-9)

Those 2 verses have ran through my mind like wild fire since June of this year. A lots has happened since June that just has not made since to me. Even now the last few weeks a friendship as been renewed, but I have those same feeling I had this summer. I know what I want, but what does God want? And I read Isaiah and know God is in control, and even tho I don't understand why we things happened the way they did, God does. I hope there is a future, but it's not up to me. As the song goes, "It's gonna be worth it all" Im just tired of feeling the way I do.

Under the weather.....

It has been a horible 2 days.  Haven't been sick in a long time which is rare for me.  But It's kicking my butt now.  Lastnight could not fall asleep till about 4am, then work up at 7:3o, and was up pretty much till Sunday School time.  

Felt a bit better at church, but had a leader meeting I cut short b/c I was starting to feel it again.Went home and slept pretty much all afternoon.  Missed youth service, so you know I was sick b/c I never miss youth service.  But my leaders did a awesome job I heard.

I have the best leaders in the World. Thank God so much for them.

Ok rest time.
