The promised blog

So I sent a tweet yesterday about needing to blog about my walmart experience so here it goes:

I went on the nonfood side of walmart where 3 cop cars were. Never figured that one out. I went in and got what I needed and came to check out 6 of the 8 lines had people lined up back in the main isle almost to the clothes. That is where I got into the express lane. Things were going great until the people in front of me go to check out and realize they left their money in the car adn leave with all their stuff on the counter. That was the exciting moment where I texted "o my" to twitter. So after the CSM got over in a few minutes because half of Salem was at walmart checking out and the poor guy was overly busy. So it was cleared out and I bought my 4 things and my 5 minute trip turned into over 1/2 an hour. Fun stuff.

No Subject Heading Today

What do you do when you try to do the right thing but everyone thinks you have done the wrong thing? This question is something that I have thought about and have personally been dealing with on the phone, messaging, and in person with others and I sit and search the scriptures and my heart and plead with God to help me figure this thing out. I don't know how to take care of it. All I do know is Proverbs 3:5-6 to Trust in God with everything and not on what is the facts and let him take control and he will get you on the right road. Crazy! It is so bizarre to think about and I know it's because of our sin nature and desire to be God as those who have come before us. It is so tempting to do what I think is right or what I want to do and others have given in. The only problem is those who had or have a good life and are getting to heaven are the one's who follow that Proverbs verse on faith and full trust in God. That's what it means to be saved! That's what it means to be a Christian! To Trust God and let him be the driver and not you!

I hate being in the back or middle of a convoy of vehicles because I worry I will get separated or lost. I naturally want to lead in the front. I have fun though if I'm in a vehicle where I don't have to worry about getting lost because it's the driver's problem. Whatever we face or have issues or questions with everyday is something we don't need to worry about if we aren't in the drivers seat. And when God is in the drivers seat it's so much better. My prayer today is for God to buckle in so I can buckle in to and can truly sit back and enjoy the ride!

New look

So I spent a couple hours this morning giving my office a new look and while doing that also doing some cleansing and reorganizing. It is fun to do the new thing and reminds me just of how much it is great that we can come and cleanse ourselves spiritually with God whenever. Tonight I am talking about pursuing a deeper relationship with God and it is always important to keep connected to God and others for the accountability to be there so growth can take place. I can only hope growth takes place administratively as I have now made changes in my office...and am worn out from moving stuff around.
