Satan wants me to type an entry tonight to tell you of my discouragement. I'm not taking that route tonight. I know the support I have from my friends to continue on the path I am. I've even obtained encouragement in little ways from my peers at work.
I can't rest tonight until I've made peace with myself and my ministry. I know that I am not in this alone. I know who supports me.
The date approaches fast. I'm ready NOW!! I want it to happen sooner than I planned! I'm jumping out of my skin. This is so frustrating to have to wait.
You know those nozzles you buy for your garden hose that dials in different sprays like: mist, shower, cone, flat, full, stream...? My favorite setting is stream. It's a constant concentrated force of water that gets to work with high pressure. That's how I feel!! Except the dial says: Ministry stream, work stream, daddy stream, friend stream, husband stream. The stupid dial is stuck on ministry stream. I can force it back in any direction, but it's just that, I have to force it. Also, my metaphors suck after beers and exhaustion. I blame the beers tonight. Probably not a good blog entry.

Dude... Great metaphor! ... Seriously, I feel the same way!.. But the nozzle on our hose says "Jet"... It maybe worse than I thought... I think the punk kid down the street used super glue and I can force it back to a different mode... Currently on the "Crazy Jet" ... Save some beer for me :)
I'm in ... let's do it!
Peace and understanding come to those that WAIT upon the Lord.
You are ready! It is only 9 days away. Enjoy being ready. Your kids need daddy time and Cassie needs husband time and you need time also.
Look into your daughters eyes and realize that she is why you are driving full force with ministry, remember not to lose her in the process. Even if you just give her a mist, she can't survive without you.
