12:52

It is 12:52 at night, and I just came home from campus. I saw God more clearly tonight than I have in a while. I cannot say all the reasons, it would take too long. But Matt. 9:35-36 came into my mind while I was there at this party. They are harrassed and helpless. They need Jesus, and I am there to point them to Him. It is not easy, and a lot of times I wonder what I am doing, but tonight, because of God's gift of His word to me, I got to remember. If we don't stand up and point the way, then we don't care if they go to hell. I didn't want to leave because I loved those guys and I had so much fun hanging out with them. If anyone reads this, please pray for the lost and dying souls of those at FMU.

what's new

OK, Wendy normally does this, but here goes for me. Students come in a few days. I'm excited, I can't wait for a new year to start, to meet new people, to love them, and to share the best news ever. However, I'm also scared in a sense. I think it is sin, it is, I mean, it is fear. I've seen all too often now that I love to get meaning out of what I do. If I am successful at my job, then I am successful at life. But with that view point, I am putting the importance on myself, and thus seeking my own glory and own gain. So the question keeps buzzing in my mind, "what if there is no fruit this year? What does that mean for me and Wendy?" God has met me the past week in repentance and in His word. Relationships, loving people, faith, hope in Him, God values these things much more than He values how much I accomplish in my job. I'm not even in control of that, so why do I long to be so much? (I would love to be revered, that's why). May God forgive me, and He does.
If you read this, please pray for me. And please pray for the lost at FMU, that I may live in such a way to tell them of the greatest of Jesus, and that my mouth would speak of it when God moves me to.
May God bless all who read this. He loves you, you know.

George Muller

Has anyone read the auto biography of George Muller? What a man of faith. He trusted God for everything, in order that Jesus alone might receive the glory. We have been reading it lately, it is an easy read, but incredible as you see him tell his story. It is actually just selected journal entries from over the years.

HOME, what's that again?

Well, we just got back to Flo-town last night, and it felt really good. In my mind I don't think I can fathom being here for a long period of time, it's really weird...kinda like, where are we headed to next? We want to go visit the Towe's sometime in Atlanta before staff training, so we will be on the road again, but I don't mind...in fact I think we are ver used to it. ALSO, I'm very much hoping to get down to the beach sometime :o) Please continue to pray for our support, and thank you for all of you that DO support us!!! We really learned what an AMAZING blessing living on support can be this summer by hanging out with our supporters. We love yall! I can't believe it's AUGUST!!!! Hope everyone is well, ready to start up their new Fall adventures. We're going to get a cord soon, and you WILL see pictures, promise...
