THANKS FOREVER…

PSALM 30: A psalm of David, sung at the dedication of the temple-

I praise you, Lord, for you have

rescued me.

You refused to let my enemies

triumph over me.

O Lord my God, I cried out to you for help,

and you restored my health.

You brought me up from the grave,

O Lord.

You kept me from falling into the pit of death.

Sing to the Lord, all you godly ones!

Praise his holy name.

His anger lasts for a moment,

but his favor lasts a lifetime!

Weeping may go on all night,

but joy comes with the mourning.

When I was prosperous I said,

“Nothing can stop me now!”

Your favor, O Lord, made me as secure

as a mountain.

Then you turned away from me, and I was shattered.

I cried out to you, O Lord.

I begged the Lord for mercy, saying,

“What will you gain if I die,

if I sink down in the grave?

Can my dust praise you from the grave?

Can it tell the world of your

faithfulness?

Hear me, Lord, and have mercy on me.

Help me, O Lord.”

You have turned my mourning into

joyful dancing,

You have taken away my clothes of

mourning and clothed me with

joy,

that I might sing praises to you and not

be silent.

O Lord my God, I will give you

THANKS FOREVER!!!!

What makes me...well...me? There are a lot of things that make up the complexities of who I am. I love God, my wife, my two little girls, and all types of crazy interesting people. I love good conversation, a bit of controversy, rebellion with a cause, and hot green tea. I love to write, read, take photos, and spend time on my patio with good friends and my beautiful family. Scripture confuses, perplexes, intrigues, and floors me. It brings me hope, joy, and frustration. I work for one of the greatest churches in the country with the greatest team ever assembled. We will challenge you and your staff to a duel on the playground at 3:10 on any afternoon. This space is for us to conversate and share thoughts on life, love, creativity, and ministry. Welcome to my little nook of the web. I hope you will come in, take off your shoes and stay awhile.
