Good Bye for now.

Well this is the last day. Kind of a weird feeling. Leaving a job to go to another. It’s all in God’s hands. Well it’s been a joy writing to all of you these last few years. Hopefully down the road here the Internet people figure out that they need to give us Internet possibilities at our house. Well everyone be blessed and I’ll talk at you later. Chow RJ

The end is near!!!

I’ve always had a work mentality in my life to do 110%. Every job I worked at I gave it my best. I always left with good terms even though I new I would never go back. I always believed by doing so. I’m leaving my name in good standards and I’m leaving a Godly example. Well strange things have happened this last few months. Some might know this some might not. I had left my pastoring job over a month ago. After God dealing with me in that situation for a very long time. So eventually I decided to do what He wanted me to do. It wasn’t easy at all. Now most people might think that because God tells you to do something that it’s going to be a wonderful thing. Well it’s not always going to be that way. For me I think it was different because well I battled with God so long that certain doors had closed. So He would have to start opening them back up. These last few months have been rough ones. I mean rough. Not know how the bills are going to be getting paid. Not even being able to by a hole bunch of presents for Jacob for his B-day. That will kill a parents heart right there. I knew that I was still in God’s plan. So I kept on pressing onward. I just kept telling myself that I don’t look at what’s around me, but I look at what God is taking me. I know that God is going to supply everything I need. One way or another. Well this last Friday I got a call from my old boss at the city bus service. He stated that He wanted me to come back and work with him. He stated that most of the drivers they are hiring now are worthless. That just don’t want to work he said. He said that he would be able to start me out at the highest of the bottom person. That I would be full time and making all the good benefits. He said he had a few opening a few months back and he said he had thought about calling me then, but never got to it. Interesting isn’t it. So I have excepted the job there. The pay is a little bit more than here and the benefits are unbelievable. Not sure what else is in store. I fill that my wife has a better job coming. That way we won’t have to worry about the finances anymore. The thing is. Things that you do in the past do come back. If I would have been a worthless employee. He would never would have wanted to hire me back. If I would have listened to God when He told me to leave. Well I believe that I wouldn’t be in the mess that I’ve been in. All I know is the more I seek after God the more His promises come forth. I know through this hole ordeal that my faith in this area is going to be rock hard. God is great all the time. So I do have some bad news though. When I leave this job on the 26th of Oct. I will no longer have the Internet. So I will no longer be able to blog. So these next few weeks are the last for a while. It’s been a joy writing over these last few years. I know that God has special things in stored for all of you. I will miss writing to you all greatly. God Bless you all. Rev. Josh

Blind Girl Story

Someone sent me this email about a blind girl. Here it is .

There was a blind girl who hater herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, “If I could only see the world, I would marry you.” One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend. He asked her, “Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?” The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn’t expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him. Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: “Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.”

I’m not sure if this is true or fake. The thing is it makes a person think. How often do we tell God how awful our life is. Then He gives us what we wanted. A day later we forget who gave it to us or we are just as unthankfull as the girl. Or how many times we’ve complained about something when a 100 or more people would just like to have what we have. The truth is. Nothing here on earth is ever going to make you happy. Getting married, money, expensive toys, or even the perfect job will never make you totally happy. The only person that can make you happy is God Himself. God is love, and God is happiness. Some people say if I had a million dollars I would be happy. Look at how many millionaires that are unhappy. Look how they try to find happiness. By going out a parting or doing whatever else there is. See the things on earth will never make you happy forever. Why you might ask? It’s because the only things that are going to make you happy are the things that you can take with you when you die and go to heaven. that pretty much eliminates all worldly possessions. Whatever is inside your spirit will make you happy. Those things are the word of God and His promises to you. Don’t look what you don’t have. Look at what you do have. You have Jesus living inside of you. It just can’t get any better than that.
