Fantasy Football Torture

Fantasy Football - holy cow - what a mind melt. It's torture! It's like a high-stakes chess match in Vegas where the grand prize is a Dolphin jersey. I'm not even sure what NFL team i'm going for (other then Dolphins of course). FF has fundamentally changed the way I watch football.

In truth I don't like it, but like a gambler to the game I find myself wanting the Packers to score using only my running-back (who was removed every time we got to the red zone), while at the same time rooting against all the other players, especially the QB, and hoping the Lions Score at least 21 points (since my opponent has the GB defense), but not winning the game.

Did I mention that I don't like watching football that way? Still, I'm close to my first champion ship (if nothing changes), and have already started a list for next year. So I see you at the next meeting of FF Anonymous and go DOLPHINS!

p.s. did I mention I picked up Ricky off the waiver wires about 3 weeks ago :)

Anxiety Attack

Have you ever felt like there is a greater purpose for your life, but your not sure what it is? Recently, I've been thinking about this more and more. Maybe it's a mid-life crisis, but it's such a strong feeling that sometimes I feel like i'm going to have an anxiety attack.

I love what I'm doing and no doubt God is using me and our church in a great way. Our church has had a tremendous impact in so many lives in such a short period of time. We are seeing lives turned around, people coming to Christ who only a short time ago wouldn't even dream of entering a church. I've witnessed marriages on the brink become strong.

Still, I feel as if God is has something incredible for me to do but i'm just not seeing it. It's like I get this rush of adrenaline and my body and mind say go, but I don't know where. I need to be doing something but I don't know what. It's completely frustrating.

Pray for me. Pray for our church. Pray that when I finally figure it out, that I would be ready to take on and accomplish that for which God is preparing me.

Ready, Set, Go

This is my first blog. I hope to consistently write and eventually have something to say :-)
