Metamorphose though Him

Oh what a blessed day. This morning I got to change out a water pump on my truck!!! It's OK to be a bit jealous. I then went wake boarding with my secular friends Steve, Martin and Martins friend Anna who is a dancer at a local club and an actress. Martin is a weight trainer ( a good one at that) and a man who prides himself on his time with the ladies. It was a great chance to really talk with both of them in one on one conversation and see the depth that they really try to hide. The wake boarding was fantastic but I got my bell rung pretty well.

After wake boarding I went out to another part of the lake and met up with Kimmy and a group called Sonshine that does week long houseboat trips for youth groups from all over the place on lake Shasta. Friday night I went to Bethels worship and met up with Travis and Andy from Sonshine and they invited me to come out to the house boats for worship tonight so I accepted (obviously). Before they started worship I got to spend time meeting some great people that just love Jesus. What a blessing it was! So then we met up on the roof of one of the house boats and just worshipped God. I didn't know many of the songs but I was so at peace and felt so loved by God as we sat up there just worshipping Him.

As I was there listening to the music and watching the stars come out I reflected on the last year. I realized that a year ago I would have thought that this was lame and that they were all a bunch of weenies. Now there was no other place that I would have rather been at. I loved being there with all of these brothers and sisters worshipping God. What an amazing transformation, change, growth, metamorphose that has happened in my life. So I just wanted to take a couple of moments to tell you about this and openly thank our Father for giving us life like we could have never imagined. We really are blessed beyond our greatest understanding. Thank you Sonshine folks for being so great and inviting us to be with you tonight.

Father thank you for loving me. Thank you sacrificing your Son for me. Thank you for this day and every day to come. Thank you for this amazing community that I get to be a part of. Thank you for your grace Father. Thank you for your faith in me when I never deserved it. Thank you Father, AMEN.
