New TV No Longer

Ok this is weird and a lot of people would call me crazy but when God tells you to do something you need to do it. Which is where I failed. The day I bought the TV I knew God was telling me not to buy it. He put a lot of obstacles in my way, a lot. I will not explain what all happened but just trust me, it was one of those things you know God is telling you. I made up a bunch of excuses so I could get it and went through a lot and now here I am looking like an idiot taking it back. This is the part where God humbles me. I was so proud of that TV and told everyone so now its weird to tell them I am taking it back. The really good thing is that I lose nothing on the TV. I financed it but I haven't paid anything yet and they said all I need is the TV the remote and the users manuel. I am taking it back Thur. The reason God didn't want me to buy it is cause my parents are putting our house up for sale tomorrow. They are trying to buy a Bed and Breakfast and they found one in Mountain View, AK. They want to try to get it now before someone else comes along. There are already a few people that are looking at it. I will be moving out and pretty much, even though I make a lot right now, I will have to start paying bills and rent for an apartment. Which means I will need all the money I can get. If my parents go really soon I will live with my grandparents till I find a place, which will be in the summer. The lesson to be learned here is "Listen to God the first time", He knows what He is doing. I was so mad when God was telling me not to do buy it cause I knew nothing of the future. Now I understand why. I just wish we could see the big picture sometimes so that we would understand what's going on. Its so weird how something like a TV can effect what God has in store for me, but He always works things out even if we don't listen the first six hundred times lol. Its is a scary thing moving out but at the same time I have always been pretty independent. I am ready in some ways and scared in the rest, but I don't want to be that guy that is 30 and stilling living at home of with his grandparents. Also if my parents do move then they are giving me some money so I can buy a new vehicle cause they know that what I have could go out pretty soon. They don't want to just leave me with that and then something happen and they are not here to help. Plus they want me to come visit them that will make it lol.

The weekend

Ok I told you that I would let you know about what happened at the girls game. Well instead of me typing it all it would be easier to for you to go to J.R.'s blog and read about it. Its the one posted for Jan. 13. I will say something he did not, like I said before the refs are looking for J.R. to do something so they can call it. Well Mr. Woodard is the other coach for the girls so J.R. just sat there trying to be quiet but as soon as he said one thing, which if I am correct he didn't even say anything bad but they thought he was being a smart aleck. So they called a tech. foul. People were pretty upset about that. I laughed.

Ok last night the church took a bunch of people to the Desoto Civic Center to Winter Jam. It was pretty good. My favorite part was Jeremy Camp, it was awesome. Here are some pictures I took with my phone.






I love that last one of J.R. Some more interesting things happened while we were there. One in which had to deal with a kid "thinking" he was really sick. We talked to Tony Nolen for a few min. which is always interesting cause he is so crazy LOL. I also had to drive J.R. back to the church, no he wasn't wasted lol, he didn't know he was going to have to drive so he didn't wear his contacts or bring his glasses, plus it was raining and we thought is was going to rain on the way home, which makes it even worse for J.R.. So I drove home and got us there a lot faster than when we drove down there.

I start back to school tomorrow, which would not be so bad if I didn't have to drive to Dyersburg for a sales rep. meeting for work tonight. My first class starts at 7:30 so I have to leave my house at like 6:45 in the morning. This semster should be fun, the only class I am taking that isn't going to be interesting is English. I will post about my first day in a few days.

Last, I am really excited about what God is going to do in my future and what he has in store for me. It tough though cause some of my friends already know what God wants them to do, just in the sense of things like being a missionary or pastor or ect.
What does God want me to do and where does he want me to do it at? I am doing my best to trust Him in life but sometimes for me its so hard cause I like to know what's going on. My biggest fear is "not knowing", not knowing where I am going what is in store for me, not knowing what to do on your first day of work. I hate not knowing things, which is really weird cause I barely know anything just as long as I am not thinking about it I am good LOL.
