It is Friday, but Fridays are nothing really special for me unlike the working class who looks forward to the weekends and rest from a grueling week. Having said that, the urgent importance of Fridays is that I will be able to spend the beautiful moments, on an extended scenario, with my lovely wife. I look forward to the conversation, the closeness, the shared moments, the awesome love that is in the air when her presence holds hands with mine. I love her dearly and each day that goes by without a job is a new day of disappointment that I also share with her.

This will be a work weekend because we are having a garage/ moving/ yard/ basement/ whatever they call it sale. I have my resume to distant lands (i.e. Dayton and Cincinnati) and we are going to be downsizing from a 3000 sq. ft. of space to about 1800. The less I have to move without having to find storage, the better I can deal with it. I really dread moving because it is so exhausting and it can really wreck a day.

With the scariness of no job and the likes of that, my prayer is that i have not waited too long to turn this phase of my life over to God. I have been hanging onto friendships and an awesome church thinking that God would not remove me from all this. Then I think of Abraham being told to leave his home and family to do some traveling for Jehovah. My eyes are open now to the fact that friendship never leaves and the church is not just a specific church in the Bellevue area of Ohio.

Excuse me for a moment: God I am ready to go wherever You have me scheduled and I am sorry for my plans getting in the way of Yours. I am sorry for being so selfish in those same plans of mine not really grabbing hold of the idea that You also have a will for my beautiful wife. You are awesome and in charge and I am reporting for duty. I love you more as each breath is taken that you have allowed me to take. Thank you for never forsaking me.

Okay! I am ready for my ministry to take flight on the back of eagle's wings. I am ready to visualize the plans God has for me and my wife. Thank you all who are following my blog for your prayers. I am confident that they were heard.

The sun is shining, I have my cup of coffee, temp is about 73, with no rain! I can deal with it.
