Tornado

Quiet peaceful blissful
A calm serene day
Then
A breeze
A gust
A horrible torrent of struggle
Pain all around
Attacks of the mind and body
Disoriented confused lost
What do I do
How do I feel
Inside this eye there is no control but there is The Comforter
When it hurts to live
The Comforter is there
When getting up feels wrong
The Comforter is there
When life destroys your life
The Comforter is there
Let Him pick you up and walk you through the pain
Let Him give you strength you never had
Let Him do miracles that turn the tornadoes of life into the testimony of great triumph
Let Him be God and let yourself be loved by Him because
He is and always will be
The Great Healer
The Great Redeemer
The Great Comforter
The Lord Jesus Christ

    Thanks a lot for taking a look at my blog Geoff. I've been through some tornadoes and they all end the same with Jesus taking control

I had a great day with the FAM yesterday. We relaxed, picked up a tree, saw someone steal from the store then steal a car(crazy), decorated our tree and watched a movie. Its the simple things. Except for the car thing that was just weird and crazy. Merry Christmas

Why wait

Bachelor parties as a married man can remind you of things.  In this case nothing naughty (smile).  So somewhere between the groom licking a kiwi and us men playing street fighter.  The elder statesmen of marriage spoke some wisdom to the young cats.  We talked about don't wait to teach your kids.  Why do parents teach their kid how to walk before they know how to.  Teach their kid how to share before they know how to.  Teach their kid how to be a 6 year old when the kid is 4.  Because they are excited to see their child grow.  Then the child hits 8-10 and all of the sudden the teacher is nowhere to be found.  Why do you seem to be surprised when the child wants you to teach them how to be a pre-teen or teen before they reach that age?  It's almost saying I was never a teacher why are you looking at me.  You know what gets parents, fear.  So here are some excuses parents have used.  Why would I tea...
