My first Blog, What its all about!

Ok, so I've been thinking about doing a blog for a while. I seem to have a lot to say but find that most of my day is spent with 2 little boys who probably don't care much about it all. About the title of my blog: There is a song by Francesca Batestelli (?sp) called This is the Stuff. It's about the little stuff in our lives that drive us crazy but at the same time drive us to God and it's that same stuff that God uses in our lives to draw us to Him so that He will be glorified in us. That's my interpretation of the song. For me, the very first line of the song is about losing a cell phone and asking a friend to call you so you can possibly find it. Been there done that, more than I'd like to admit. It drives me crazy and it drives Tim even crazier when I lose my phone!!! Losing a different phone 3 times in 6 months will tend to make someone like me feel like an utter failure. "I can't even keep up with a stupid phone, why do I think I have any business keeping up with a family!" That is a line straight from Satan. Years I've spent trying to "take every thought captive as unto the Lord" but it seems the little stuff seems really big alot of times. God is so much bigger than that stupid cell phone and He would not have blessed me with such a terrific family if He didn't think I was capable, with Him of course, of taking care of them. So, all of that is to say that I am going to blog about the stuff in my life...the good the bad the ugly. My hope is that as I grow in my relationship with the Lord that there will be more good stuff to share than bad or ugly, even though He uses those just the same.
