I pooted....some needed prayer, and my 1st sermon remembered....

Yep these are the words I read while driving to the Friday night OG! Here is a picture of it:



Yeah...Tiffany and I read it...and of course she was with me...so we laughed at it...and laughed hard...and of course I Googled it and read that it is a new show that will be on the Cartoon Network...not sure what it is about...but man I love the advertising campaign!

=============

Well, they have officially called my car totaled....and I have been waiting for the check to come in and searching for the best cars I can find for a price that Tiffany and I can afford. It is killing me, because I feel like anytime I am out there looking for cars that everyone is out to rip me off. But alas...I still love them, and so I use my brian and deal with them...And hope that in some small way I can be Jesus like in their lives...even when I am buying a car. So we have narrowed it down to three cars, the Honda CR-V (the one I used to have...this one will be hard to find in our price range, because they hold their value so well.) The Ford Escape (the gas mileage is better than most SUVs and as long as I don't take turns too fast then it should keep all its wheels on the ground), and lastly the Nissan Xterra (by far the coolest looking of all three, but also the worst gas mileage of the rest as well.)...... so needless to say.... PLEASE pray for us and the sales guys we will be working for...If I can make a sale and start a friendship...then the whole process will be worth it...who knows...maybe there is a sales person who needs authentic community and there is an OG just waiting for them! Thanks for yall's prayers!

===========

Well, I have been trying to be better about my quiet time with God...and it just seems like I have been doing what I normally do..and that is have an on going convo with Him through out the day! This is great and the way I have done it most of my life...but lately I have been wanting to spend really good (cell turned off, and sitting in a garden) quite time with him... Hopefully my friend Bryan and I can find a day around here somewhere that we can just spend then entire day in prayer and worship...can't wait...

===========

I am also preaching twice (2 weeks in a row) in August. I am excited about it...but need to start the process of thinking about them. I have to tell yall...when I spoke to the youth one Way camp 2 weeks ago....I was freaked out. When I preached there...it was like I was playing football again. I never preach like that...and it kind of scared me... the last talk I was jumping up and down (what that heaven is that?!) and then I noticed that the adults were freaking out about the storm that was about to hit that night...and so instead of doing an alter call...I just walked off the stage! I went outside where the wind was acting like it was experiencing a roller coaster for the first time...and I just prayed.... It was weird! I remember the first time that I really preached. It was @ a Chrysalis and afterwards I fell to my knees and cried....it was almost as if God borrowed my life for a second and filled me up...and then let me come back! I will never forget that day, and I must say this is almost like a second major event in my life. I have been thinking about it ever since...and it is just so different than me that it is really causing me to think hard. There is a part of me that I did not realize was in there...at least during worship, heh... so please be in prayer for me to discern what God is telling me! Thanks!

============

Yall have a wonderful day! God bless and take care!

Of course I join in praying for your car, your QT and preaching; but I had to post to say thanks for the billboard picture. We saw it when leaving OKC, and JD and my mom and I laughed about it all the way to KY. Isn't it a hoot? Now JD loves to say it and announce every one he has. I bet you do too :) God bless you!

D.G. and Tiffany,
Congrats on your ordinations! Nick and I had hoped to go to the NWTexas Conference this year--esp. since it was in our new "home town". We didn't realize you were being ordained--so it was great to see your pictures in the conference paper. Blessings to you both and may God continually strengthen you and his ministry through you.
