Entertaining Angels

After work tonight (I should say "this morning"), I was greeted with an opportunity which taught me something about provision. I know that God will provide because He loves his children. But this provision isn't just a one way street. We can't provide God with any 'thing', but we can be used by God to provide for those in need. Be encouraged to provide for those in need because it's God doing the providing and using His vessel (us) to meet a need. It's an honor to work in His plan when I least expect it. See God in opportunities that could bless someone, and tell them it's God who's blessing them.

Let's See Where This Goes...

Well, I just returned home to San Jose last night from a wonderful visit with my folks in Oregon. The trip was just an awesome experience! There weren't any distractions around, just great company and God's beautiful outdoors. I had a lot of time to think about life, my relationship with Jesus, and how I've been connecting the two (or lack of). Since I've been very reflective these past few weeks, it came to mind to start a blog. (I got the idea from my bro 'cause he has one). It's kinda strange that anyone can read this stuff...so that's why I say, "Let's see where this goes." But hopefully some of the things that I'm walking through and write about, can help someone who reads it. I'm also starting this page and opening up to let people know a little bit more about me, so I guess it can serve as a type of accountability. Anyway, there's the run-down.

The following verse has been on my mind this past week. Being up in Oregon, away from everything except God was a renewal process for me.

Romans 12:2
"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will."
