As I sit in my Recliner writing this at this very moment I look across to my left and I see one of God’s greatest Gifts he’s ever given me, my wife! She means the entire world to me. There is not a minute goes by that I don’t think about her. However sometimes I feel like I take her for granted. She does so much for me that I should appreciate her more! I try to remember every day to tell her not only that I love, but that she is appreciated for all that she does.
As Christians we also take God for Granted and we under-appreciate him. As much as our spouses do for us Our GOD does so much more. Not only did he send his son to die so that we may live in forgiveness and Grace, he also takes care of our each and every need. Day by day he gives us blessings sometimes we recognize them right off but sometimes out blessings come wrapped up or disguised. Those small blessings are the ones we sometimes forget to thank him for. We should always be quick to recognize GODS many blessing rather they be ghinormous or as simple as finding a 5 dollar bill in the washing machine.
I want to publicly thank God right now for a blessing in my life. I got a call not 10 minutes ago and I got hired at Tuckerman High school! Thank you Lord for your generosity and grace. I also want to thank each and every one of you that helped me pray about this situation! I love you all. I love my beautiful wife. And most Important I love you JESUS!!!
Deuteronomy 23: 5
Nevertheless, the Lord your God would not listen to Balaam, but the Lord your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the Lord your God loves you.

There Will Be a Day
I am inspired by the Jeremy Camp song "There will be a day". In the song it talks about how there will be a day with no more tears, no more pain and no more fears. We'll get to see Jesus Face to Face.
Oh What a day that will be. There are loved ones we are all waiting for on the other side. I for one Cannot wait to hug my Gran Pat, my Papaw Shelby, My uncle Joe, My aunt Margie and my baby cousin lane. That will be so amazing to hear about all the stories they have from heaven and im sure that you each have loved ones that you are ready to see.
But as good as it will be to see our dear departed loved ones, Seeing my Jesus, My Creator, My prince of peace, my Jehovah Jireh, my Jehovah Nissi, My jehovah Rapha face to face will be to amazing to even imagine. Will I dance, will i sing, will i freeze in awe, will i bow, so many questions.... But all i know is when that time comes when i go to meet the lord whether through death or rapture, im going to fly out of here straight to the side of Jesus.
Luke 6:23
Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
Love you All and God Bless

My First Attempt at Blogging
This is All kind of new for me. I have friends who blog quite a bit but I never thought that I would be the blogging type. But recently I have been called into God's Ministry and I really believe God has told me to start this because this would be a way to reach and help people who are struggling or need encouragement.
For those of you who don't know me my name is Robby and I am 25 years old and I am married to a wonderful Woman who is the love of my life. She supports me in everything that I do. She is with me side by side as I try to achieve the ultimate Goal and that is to WIN SOULS FOR CHRIST! I also have 2 extremly terrific parents who have raised me right since birth. They along with I have attended the same church since my birth. My dad has been a deacon in this church for nearly 25ish Years. My mother has served as the Adult sunday School teacher and Piano Player for as long as I can remember. They are truly workers of GOD and the Church. I am so appreciative of them and their Christian Values and their ability to serve. I also have alot of Christian Family support. All of my aunts Uncles and Cousins are true blue Christians. They mean the world to me and my cousins are more like siblings.(I know y'all will read this so i just wanted to let you know I love you all and Thank you for all your continued support) My church family, Pastor(and wife) and Accoc. Pastor(and wife) are all so Great I cannot express my appreciation for all the prayers and support they give me in my walk with the Lord Jesus Christ.Now that you know me there is one last thing; if you are wondering about the name of my blog, I am a huge College Football Fan especially my beloved ARKANSAS RAZORBACKS!!! WOOO PIG SOOOOIE! Go Hogs!
Other than my introduction, the reason for posting this first blog is to share my thoughts on Relationship with our Savior.
Personal Relationship with JC is the absolute most important thing in this world. It doesn't matter what the sign of your church says. It could say Assembly of God, First Baptist, Church of Christ, United Methodist or Church of God, but none of the Doctrines of those churches will grant you access to heaven. The only way to reep your eternal reward is to 1) gain salvation through repentance of your sins and 2) continue to grow through prayer and reading the word of GOD.
GOD will always be right beside you as long as you will let him. There was a sign posted in a neighboring town at one of the local churches and it said something along the lines of "If you don't feel close to GOD, Who Moved?" That is a 100% true statement. GOD will never move. But we have to be willing to continue our relationship with him or we will feel ourselves drifting from his Presents.
John 14:21 says: The person that has My commands and keeps them is the one who really loves Me; and whoever really loves Me will be love by My Father and I too will love him and show Myself to him. I will let Myself be clearly seen by him and make Myself real to him.
I really hope that this helps some one. I will try to continue this as much as I possibly can. Please Comment and Tell your friends.
