We're all finding our own place in the world.

I found this on Pintrest. This is so sweet and so true when it comes to growing older. :)

Psalm of the day keeps the devil away pt. 5

God, my shepherd! I don't need a thing. You have bedded me down in lush meadows, you find me quiet pools to drink from. True to your word, you let me catch my breath and send me in the right direction. Even when the way goes through Death Valley, I'm not afraid when you walk at my side. Your trusty shepherd's crook makes me feel secure. You serve me a six-course dinner right in front of my enemies. You revive my drooping head; my cup brims with blessing. Your beauty and love chase after me every day of my life. I'm back home in the house of God for the rest of my life. (Psalm 23:1-6 MSG)

Keep praying and keep sharing!

The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.

My new homework!

After being in pro ball for a year and a half,not being in college anymore, and watching Kelley do homework every night for hours I realized that I need to get some new homework for myself! My typical day in the offseason usually starts off with a huge breakfast, then I go hit, take ground balls, throw, and lift. After that I usually come home to make a huge lunch and then sit around until I give baseball lessons to kids, most nights. Needless to say I have a lot of free time. Soooooo I picked up guitar! I figured this is something that I could entertain myself with and play some of my favorite songs. I expressed this interest to Kelley last fall so she bought me guitar lessons for Christmas at Mary's Music in Clarksville. So after three lessons and hours on YouTube I'm really starting to pick it up! So here is a pic of my guitar and a pic of my chords and scales I've been learning.. If you have a lot of free time I would suggest guitar! Just takes some patience and a lot of practicing! That's it for now. Keep praying and serving God!

Just the usual

Getting ready for my second full week of school, and our last few weeks together before Alex leaves. I'm so thankful for the opportunities that are before us! About 7 1/2 month until our wedding :) I'm excited! Thanks to our family and friends that read our blog! We hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoy writing it! :)

A psalm a day keeps the devil away pt. 4

The law of the Lord is perfect,
refreshing the soul.
The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy,
making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right,
giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant,
giving light to the eyes. The fear of the Lord is pure,
enduring forever.
The decrees of the Lord are firm,
and all of them are righteous. They are more precious than gold,
than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,
than honey from the honeycomb. By them your servant is warned;
in keeping them there is great reward. May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. (Psalm 19:7-11, 14 NIV)

I love reading psalm because of the use of metaphors, check out verse 10 to see what I mean!

Keep praying and helping people who need help! God bless
