Sunday Night Reflections

Today was the first day of the Fall Campaign, Nothing's too Hard for God, and I think we got off to a great start. Today's topic was "No Person is Beyond Forgiveness". This week, the small groups are going to discuss the theme in greater detail and watch a video of the amazing story of Eric Earheart. Keep praying that life transformation will happen as a result of this series.

During the service this morning, we prayed for my mother who is in the hospital. She is still feeling weak as a result of the pneumonia, but she's making some progress. Please continue to pray for her.

I had a grueling day yesterday. I was in Odessa all day with some of my students for a competition. I left my house at 5:00 in the morning and returned about 11:00 that night. Consequently, I was a little more worn out than most Sundays but God gave me the physical strength for the task. All in all, it today turned out to be a great day in spite of my fatigue. Thank you, Jesus!

Ryan ran in the Armydillo Run yesterday and came in 2nd place overall in the two-mile race. Click here and scroll down to the 2 mile individual run results, and you'll see his name. He was only six seconds behind the first-place finisher, a 20-year old young man.

Time for bed! Have a great week!

November 13, 1989. 11:30 AM I had just finished my lunch in the teacher's workroom and was walking back to my classroom. I was teaching at San Jacinto Elementary in San Angelo, Texas at the time. Up until then, it had been a typical November day. As I walked past the school office, the door swung open, and a fellow teacher stepped out with a look of concern on her face. She spoke directly to me and said, “Your wife’s on the phone, and it sounds serious.” I ran into the office, took the phone, and heard my wife say, “I don’t know what happened, but your brother is on life support in a hospital in Austin.”  Twelve hours later, my father and I were sharing a room in a hotel on I-35 in Austin. My sister-in-law, Sandy, and her six-year-old daughter, Araceli, were in a room across the hall. I hardly slept that night. I would doze off and suddenly wake up to my father crying and calling out my brother’s name.  My brother was dead. Osiel had collapsed that morning while his h...

Try not to laugh too hard

So we finally gave in and bought a Wii. It turns out that it's a lot of fun. Unfortunately, my kids were having fun at my expense. I was trying out the boxing and had no idea Bethany was video taping me. The jerky movement at the end of the clip is Bethany shaking because she was laughing so hard.

Happy Anniversary!

Today is the one-year anniversary of the beginning of this blog. I started blogging on June 9, 2007 with this post . One year later, I'm still enjoying blogging about what's going on at Solid Rock Church, and linking to other interesting blogs and articles, as well as blogging about some of my thoughts and reflections related to Solid Rock and the church world in general. I know I have a few readers out there, so as long as there are three of you reading this blog, I guess I'll keep it going. And remember, comments are always welcomed!
