New name!

For a while now, I've been pondering a new name for my blog. As you can see, I did come up with something. . . .although you maybe wondering why in the world I picked what I did. I shall tell you. . .

Tonight, my brothers and I had company. Joe, Robert, and Emily came over after church to chill and to watch Facing the Giants. I don't know if all of you have seen said movie. The acting is a little rough, but I think the story line is powerful. It's especially sweet when you realize that they have been showing this movie EVERYWHERE: in highschools, to sports teams, to the kids in White Pine. Quite a strong testimony. But back to my original train of thought.

If you recall the scene with Grant and Mr. Bridgers. . . .Mr. Bridgers is giving words of encouragement to Grant. When Grant admits that he is frustrated because he doesn't see God at work, Mr. Bridgers tells him this: "I heard a story of two farmers who both desperately needed rain. They both prayed for rain, but only one went and prepared his fields. Now which one do you think believed the rain was actually coming?"

My little brain began to ponder that. . . There is SO much I want God to do in my life right now. . . things I am begging Him to accomplish. I want to go back to Northland. I want to be married and have a family. I want to be on my own. I want to be changed from the selfish person I am into somebody else. I want to SEE God at work.

But have I made my life ready for rain?
