Moss House

It came to my attention that this blog doesn't contain any pictures of my new house except the tiny one on the side. So this is my second shameless plug of something I love... Our new house that God has graciously given us! Enjoy. Yes, I love color!

Poll Time

OK so I thought I would propose a poll. Shane and I are currently saving up to take another trip somewhere in the world. The problem is Where? There are so many area that we would love to explore and we are having a tuff time narrowing down our choices. So I am putting it to a vote. Please respond with your top three choices for us and help us decide where to GO! Votes will be tallied on Aug. 31. Thanks!!!!!!!

Monday is Wish day.

If only, if only, I had a vespa! I would drive my little scooter to work, to church, to the grocery store or anywhere in the whole world. He he he, how much fun that would be. OK on a more serious note, I want a vespa. According to recent studies at Harvard University, I actually NEED a vespa or I may combust! I am serious, serious by nature. Well I am typing today's blog via Microsoft 2007 AKA windows vista. This version has a blog layout that is supposed to load strait to any blog and I thought I would give it a try while simultaneously begging Shane for my long awaited vespa. Hope that everyone is have a great Monday.

Freedom

What does it mean to be free? There are so many definitions of freedom that I am curious as to how my friends define freedom. Is there an example that you point to and say, "That is freedom!" I know there have been defining moments in my life that left me feeling as if I was gulping in the fresh air of freedom. The first time I went on a trip by myself and was completely unaccountable to anyone and I thought I could just drive forever or sit and stare at the scenery according to my time schedule. Then there was the time that God delivered me from resentment and I felt so light and unburdened that I remarked upon the miracle of walking, for I felt that I was floating. In stark comparison, I know without doubt what slavery looks like. Slavery is a mind unfed, living in a body that is engorged by fat, in a single wide trailer infested by every pest I could conceive and some that I cannot. Slavery is found in every addicts' mindset. Slavery is breed thought the generations and seems to gain further grasps if it is not constantly combated against. I know now why we are called to be a separate nation. It is to give us distance from the chains of slavery. It is why God makes us NEW creatures. There is no question when God works in your life and your situation. I am NOT the person I used to be! I have been bought with the price of sacrifice and am a Holy Ghost filled creation. Thank you Jesus for the difference you made in my life. I hope that I will always honor You with the way I live and the decisions I make.
