Random thoughts about Tim Tebow

I AM SO PUMPED!!!

I dont think I have EVER in my ENTIRE LIFE Been SO PROUD of my QB, or to call myself a Broncos FAN!

I am So Proud of my Quarterback such an OUTSTANDING example of what it means to be a Christ Follower , a Player in the NFL. Such a bold stand for your Faith week after week, on that kind of Stage is something very commendable. For me it all boils down to this answer to Rich Eisen's Question:

 Rich Eisen:" It really is remarkable what all this has become, I know your Used to a certain level of fame from the college level,but what you have been able to accomplish in just 5 starts is truly amazing to people on the out side so, now I'd like to just lift the hood so to speak & see how your able to keep this all in perspective"

Tim: "It is very exciting & we're very excited about the wins we've been able to put together but, I think, in what you were elluding to earlier, just with the support I think, the greatest thing for me is we play a game out here & we're very passionate as you can see me playing out here today, & I love it & I care about it, but, the greatest thing about this sport, & the NFL is we have such a platform, & we can take that platform & we can influence the next generation, & honestly that is my Passion, this week we got to announce that I was building a hospital in the Philippines, and this game here means alot, but, that hospital means more to me, cause that's changing peoples lives, that's giving people faith, & hope & love and thats more important. So, my ultimate goal with this, with playing football, Is to be a great role model, that a parent can look at their son and say, that's someone whos trying to do it the right way, he's not perfect, but, every day he's trying to do a little bit better, & Honor God, do the right thing, do whats's right, & do his best".

WOW!

An NFL Player that Understands & Uses his Influence in the NFL to Fulfill the Great Commission!
Amazing! even if I hadn't been a Denver Broncos Fan all of my Life, He would have my Utmost Respect!

Direction, Motivation, & #SMBFW

I totally just made one of the best decisions regarding my future & career path today by attending #SMBFW!

 

Ok, so your saying... "What the heck is #smbfw? & why do I care?" 

 

#smbfw stands for Social Media Breakfast Fort Wayne. It is a group of like-minded Individuals from all-over Fort Wayne that meet once a month, usually, with a speaker or 2, to network, share & learn from each other about Social Media. 

 

The reason why I say it was one of the best decisions I have ever made, is because the topics discussed Today were about The Best of Blog Indiana which is a 2- day Conference held once a year in Indianapolis. The Hashtag if you care is #bin2011.

 

Everything that was shared today by the people that attended this years conference 100%  affirmed to me that I am TOTALLY on the right track  with the progress I have made in the last few years personally, professionally, & in my Blogging & learning to blog! 

This is a overwhelming & wonderful confirmation of the direction of the path that I have felt God has had me on pretty much since I have started this Blog!! 

 

I am SO Excited!!! Cant wait for what's next!!! 

Change is our friend... Or is it??

Arrrgg!! What is the deal with the Social Media sites & the global sweeping changes lately?? I never used to think I was a person that was particularly resistant to change, but then this app had a Huge update ( which is why I haven't posted lately! An excuse I know! But work with me here!! ) which required me to re-enter all of my sign in info! Grrr! Then, Facebook decided to have a complete & total, headache inducing Identity crisis!!!! Oh well... I guess I gotta put on on my big girl panties & move on with life!

Doesn't mean I have to like it though!

Hello Fear!

This Is The Title Track from Kirk Franklin's Newest CD, that really resonated with me today!

Cultivating patience

Yesterday I was feeling kinda grouchy, touchy, & all around impatient! It was one of those days; that every little thing that anyone did just rubbed me the wrong way! My Daughter dragging her feet doing her chores... People driving way below the speed limit for no apparent reason on my way to work ( even though I had plenty of time to get there) all seemed to light my fire of impatience & cause frustration to well WAY up inside of me to the point I was going to explode in a very ugly way on the next unsuspecting, possibly innocent individual. It wasn't until I got to work at my second job,( at a Family Christian stores) where I was doing my best to deal with a couple of ladies who came in & asked for a certain book, only to let themselves be side tracked by someone else when I started to show them where it was.

Ok, I thought & went back to what I was doing, only to have the same ladies came back several minutes later & interrupt me in the middle of helping another customer "Excuse, me" she said as she leaned over the counter getting right in my face as she said it. " "Can you show me where that book is now?" I told her I would be right with her as soon as I am done with the lady I am presently helping" So finding that mildly annoying, I finished up with the customer I was helping & helped them.

Now, they wanted to know if we had another book ( we didn't) & they couldn't find the books they originally asked about.

I showed them where they were bitting many holes in my tongue, smiling & being polite to them. Before leaving one of them asked me if I could find a book for them, but, they couldn't remember the name of the book or author. I politely told them that I was not able to look up a book if they didn't know at least the author or the title. The lady said can't you look up the book from members card? I reassured her that the card didn't work that way., & if she didn't know at least the title or author I couldn't help them. The other lady said " well, do you know if another bookstore would carry those books??" I told her that Barnes & Noble might. They thanked me for all my help & left. Right after that I felt that little whisper from the Holy Spirit about how God uses those kind of experiences to cultivate patience in us.

I giggled when I realized the truth of that thought. So now, whenever I am in a situation like that, or any other one that I am tempted to become impatient or frustrated I just have to remind myself that this is just a situation that God is using to cultivate patience within me!!
