Gone Public

Welcome! If its your first time here, please feel free to look at the limited selection of stuff to see so far and come back again later, I'm sure we'll be updating a lot in the weeks to come!

So today I finished and uploaded our first promotional video! This is super exciting and I simply can't wait to see what God has in store for this site. There's a lot that's going to change and a lot of stuff planned for the future that I hope to make another video for later but for now we'll see what the first response is.

I'm really really excited and we're just getting started!

For His glory,
Michael

The Cat in my Lap

Okay, what would you do when your grandmother's cat, which you're allergic to, jumps in your lap while you're on the computer? This is my situation. As much as I love Maggie, I get sick every time I'm near her and don't take my medicine (like today). Right now she sits in my lap, I can't get her off, and she wants me to constantly pay attention to her. That's hard to do when you're trying to catch up on FaceBook and make sure your email isn't filled with junk.

Yea, I know Maggie's in my lap (I'm sneezing for Pete's sake), but I'm trying to ignore her; I don't want to take the time to please her. Lately I feel like I've done the same with God. I know He's there, but I'm ignoring Him. I don't want to do what He wants; I'm doing what Tori wants. This doesn't help me at all. My grades are slipping; I'm not connecting with my family; and I can't concentrate at church.

No, I don't get sick every when I'm near God. I get caught up in Him and realize how much He means to me. God always has the spot in my heart that only He alone can fill; nothing else can. I can't sweep Him off my case; I have to have Him with me at all times. The only way I can reassure myself (make me feel better) is relying on Him, praying, and reading His word.

I hope ya'll are remembering what it's like to have God around. It is the holiday season. He is the reason we celebrate. Don't forget that!

Have an awesome next few weeks with friends and family!
Much Love,
Tori M.
