Interview...

Well, I had my phone interview this morning. I am not real sure how it went. I think it went pretty good, but you can never tell with these things. I am a little nervous about it as I havent heard anything at all from them. The interview was at 8:30 this morning and no word as of this writing. God has it though! It is his because I have decided to give him everything and let him open the doors for me and lead me where he wants me to go! Nothing else I can do, so it was best just to let him lead me.

Im praying hard that I get this job, but if I don't, I will push on! HIS will be done!

More later folks!

I will praise him in this storm!!

Well, it has come down to me losing nearly everything in my life to get close to God.  BUT, I am getting close to him.  He closed the door on my job, but he has opened up another one to a MUCH better job!  I have a phone interview in the morning at 8:30 (man, that's early!) and I have been told that if it goes well they want to bring me on ASAP!  Please pray that I get this as it will mean a LOT more money and time with my family.

I am going through a storm right now...but I will praise him in this storm!  Job lost everything. He lost all of his children, his crops, his whole world was taken from him and he praised God at the end.  That is what I am going to do!  

The words to this song simply speak to me!

Praise You in This Storm
words by Mark Hall/music by Mark Hall and Bernie Herms

I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.

Chorus:
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away

Chorus

I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

Chorus

Well, here goes...

I need to confess with the tongue and in this day and age, with the keyboard as well.  I am a Born Again Christian!  I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour and I want the world to know it!  

It has been said that sometimes you need to hit rock bottom before God will lift you up...well, I have officially hit rock bottom.  I have lost my job, about to lose my car, almost lost my wife and the most precious little girl you will ever see.  All because I am stupid and did things MY way instead of God's way!  Well, I am admitting it!  I havent been such a good father, husband, friend, or person.  I almost lost everyting because of my own stupidity.

I have now placed my life in God's hands!  My life is his to do what he wishes.  I have given it all to him!  I can't make it in this life without his love and grace and his hands upon me...leading me.  As I said above, I have lost a LOT and am now at rock bottom...but "I WILL PRAISE HIM IN THIS STORM!!!"

God will lead me through!

More later!
