I Was A Highway Man...

Well its been a few weeks since my lasts blog so I figure it is time to give you all a taste of what is going on in my life. Well for starters I have found a beautiful Filipino girlfriend just kidding or am I, who knows you don't because your not hear. In a snap decision we decided to move from the peace and tranquility of camp live in San Pablo. We will be spending the next 2-3 weeks in the Metro Manila area, living in the city of Cainta one of many cities that makes up Manila. Here once again I am reunited with old friends and again making new ones we met a couple other whiteys from Canada Lethbridge to be exact. Together with them we have started to clear a lot which is going to be used for the new church building of the New Hope fellowship. We started Monday cutting down trees moving piles and piles of rubble from the yard, breaking up existing concrete etc. This new work means we are outside most of the day which means we are finally tanning I of course have the best tan no surprise but Brandon's is coming along as well and Byron well he is still very much white. its funny because all the Filipinos want to be white and all we want is to be dark go figure. I've been dwelling on the Lords grace allot for the past week, I was reflecting on my life and as I looked back over all the crap that I've done and has happened to me. It is impossible to see myself as someone who can be used by God but the fact of the matter is that we are all new creations in Christ the old has passed away. This has really been motivating me to press on that realization that my wrong doings have been and will continue to be covered by the love of Christ. It encourages me to know that who I am is not defined by my short comings, but that I am defined by Christ in me and he sees me as a loving father sees his child. No matter how many times we fall down he will pick us up dust us off and give us exactly what we need to continue on. I pray for those of you who read this and have already made that choice to put Christ number one in your life, that you would be made stronger today and you would know the awesome power of the grace of our Lord. For those of you who read this and do not believe or have never heard the message of Jesus my prayer for you is that you begin to look at your live and ask yourself if your happy for real are you actually happy, if not I would like to talk to you more about my best friend Jesus.

God bless you all I love you and Christ loves you always remember Gods grace is bigger then you bigger then anything you have ever done or ever will do, and he is mighty to save he will pull you from the depths of despair and set you apart and you will soar with wings like eagles. Until we meet again.
