You lived in this world without God and without hope.
But now you have been united with Christ Jesus.
Once you were far away from God, but now you have
been brought near to him through the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:12b-13, NLT
I don’t know about you, but this verse describes me a “T”. I lived in this world without God and therefore without hope until God brought me near to Himself. Scripture is full of this idea that God has pursued us and done everything in His power to bring us to Himself. I don’t know why sometimes, but God wants a relationship with me and with you. It’s an awesome thought. I want to be near to God, but I can’t do that on my own. It took the ultimate sacrifice to make it happen.
I have been brought near to God by Christ. There’s a thought I needed for the day!
Here’s a video Nick sent me this week that drives this thought home another way…
I know this video isn’t going to win me any “nice points” but I dare you not too laugh. Hey, at least it isn’t your kid! This HAD to hurt!

Happy Friday!!
PS: I did not get a buck last weekend (missed on two of them…doh!) so I am heading back up for one more try on Saturday. Wish me luck! (I did get a doe so it wasn’t a total disaster).
I can fit an entire cheeseburger in my mouth and still eat it (I’ve actually done it), but this guy takes the cake. Once again…only a dude would even try…
Here is this week’s installment of Friday Frodder thanks to C00lstuff.com. You just gotta love those Japanese game shows. Here are guys playing soccer while wearing binoculars. Who thinks this stuff up? I don’t know, but it’s funny…
I found my new favorite website yesterday while doing a little web browsing (actually got there from another blog). The site is called Cool Stuffand it is full of weird, funny, and cool videos. I will be sharing one of my favorite videos every Friday to launch us into the weekend (yes, I know it’s Saturday…I’m a late bloomer). Most of the videos will have a slight bent toward stuff guys like (meaning stupid stuff only guys do). Here’s the first installment…let me know if you want to give this a try! Gotta love lighting stuff on fire!
